For The Wise Diver

by Jeff A Paddock

When Ander gets caught out of bed during the summer of 1949, his father takes him to the garage and puts a gun in his hand. “You’re not ready to be a man, son.” At eighteen years old, Ander can’t believe his father’s words. To prove himself, he runs away to Carolina Beach as an adventure sport called scuba-diving hits the scene. There he meets Gail, a hot-shot diver, and Dean, a gentle giant with a secret even he doesn’t know. A mysterious evil pursues them to the bottom of the Atlantic and the team find themselves trapped underwater, running out of air with only seconds left. Ander is forced to live up to his father’s challenge before their minds dilute into the water forever.
