An Abyssal Bio-Tech Sci-Fi Thriller of Submarine Habitats, Oceanic Experiments, and Global Threats

In the year 2160, Earth's surface resources are exhausted, forcing human civilization to depend on vast underwater agricultural domes, deep-sea mining colonies, and abyssal research stations. Marine biologist Dr. Robert Wilde intercepts an anomalous bio-acoustic signal emanating from the deepest oceanic trench.

Investigating the signal, Dr. Wilde uncovers a derelict underwater facility hosting a disastrous military genetic experiment that mutated deep-sea organisms into aggressive bio-weapons. Racing against catastrophic oceanic breaches, Dr. Wilde must neutralize the abyssal threat before it wipes out human undersea habitats.

Why You’ll Love This Book

Irving A. Greenfield crafts a high-stakes nautical science fiction thriller filled with submarine tradecraft, oceanic exploration, and bio-technological suspense. Perfect for fans of Michael Crichton's Sphere, Peter Benchley, and Frank Schätzing's The Swarm.
