Diving for lost treasure in the Atlantic Ocean off Key West,
Florida, Genevieve Wallace was all business. A no nonsense
type of person, she is a stickler for details, first relying
on hard training starting with Jack Payne when she was a
young child, and then later, trusting in her instincts for
what is right, what is wrong, and what is possible.
Thor Thompson, like the god of thunder, believes that if his
brain can't solve the problem, then his sheer brawn can.
But, he's more than just an expert diver and more than just
the proud owner of a powerful diving boat as Sheriff Jay
Gonzalez learns when Thor is authorized to review open
homicide cases.
Life is good. Genevieve has a career she loves and friends
that share similar interests. Her team of experience
treasurer hunting divers is searching for the Marie
Josephine, lost at sea nearly 200 years ago. The loss of the
bountiful shipload has its own tragic history and mystery.
Instead of finding jewels and artifacts, she finds a ghost
who, suddenly animated, warns her to 'Beware.'
Nobody believes her. Who would? Genevieve admires creative
practical jokesters, and she is as ready as anybody for a
good practical joke even if she is its target. When somebody
intentionally places a mannequin on her porch, her limit is
reached. Then a dead woman's body is swept ashore at the
resort. Except, she's not Genevieve's ghost. Are they connected?
The memory of the watery vision still haunts Genevieve. It
is just the first of appearances. The girl and now a troop
of pirates invade her dreams, and manifest with seaweed and
seawater when she wakes in her bed.
Sickened by the brutal murder and the continuing haunting,
Genevieve goes to visit Audrey Lynley. Audrey promotes
herself as a medium; able to communicate with ghosts. In a
town rumored to have ghosts around every corner, Genevieve
would normally laugh off such insanity as part of Key West's
charm.
Thor believes the worst place for a person with a
dysfunction mind, is on or under the water. He doesn't trust
unstable minds, but Genevieve's unconscious good-looks and
intelligence sparks his interest and when she runs into his
strong arms for solace, he doesn't stop to think. Once he
has a taste of her, he can't go back and dives further into
the relationship and into her insanity. The pools of
seawater drenching their bed and floor boards must have a
reasonable explanation, but he won't believe there is any
such thing as ghosts.
Audrey admits she's used her mind and common logistics
rather than having any paranormal skills. Audrey requests
the Harrison Investigation, a team that investigates
paranormal occurrences, to investigate her friend's claim.
In THE VISION, Ms. Graham has done it again. It took
everything I had not to flip to the back of the book and
find out who the killer is. These are pages to be read,
savored, and thought about. She has weaved facts into
meanings and yet deeper meanings. Thank you for the adventure.
When Deep Down Salvage begins the hunt for the Josephine
Marie, it seems like any other dive . . . until Genevieve
Wallace sees the vision of a dead woman in the water, her
vacant eyes boring into Genevieve's very soul.
Terrified and confused by what she saw, Genevieve is
haunted by the memory, but no one -- including her diving
partner Thor Thompson -- believes her. When a dead woman
washes up on shore, everyone assumes this is
Genevieve's "vision," but Genevieve knows the truth: the
dead woman is not the ghost she saw but another victim of
the same brutal killer.
Sensing that the threat of death is coming closer, she and
Thor are forced to acknowledge that some things can't be
explained, but simply are. Somehow they have to link a
violent past with a present-day mystery or risk losing
themselves in an abyss of terror.
