About the Book
Book: The Crushing DepthsAuthor: Dani Pettrey
Genre: Romantic Suspense
Release Date: June 30, 2020
They know the power and peril of the ocean.
But as they get closer to the deadly truth…
An even greater danger lurks just beneath the surface.
When an accident claims the life of an oil-rig worker on the first drilling platform off the North Carolina coast, Coast Guard investigators Rissi Dawson and Mason Rogers are sent to take the case. Tensions surrounding the oil rig are high and the death has everyone on edge. Environmental activists are threatening to do whatever it takes to stop the structure from being completed, while rumors are being whispered about ancient curses surrounding this part of the ocean.
Mounting evidence shows the death may not have been an accident at all. Was he killed by one of the activists or, perhaps more frighteningly, a member of his own crew? Rissi and Mason have to sort through not only a plethora of suspects, but also their own past and attraction to each other.
Just as the case seems like it’ll break open, worse news arrives. A tropical storm has turned their way and soon they’re cut off from any rescue–and right where the killer
wants them. It’s a race to discover his identity before he eliminates the threat they pose.

This book had me from the second page! This book is filled of suspense and romance. This book is the second book in the series and the second book that I read that was written by Dani Pettrey and I like it much more than I did the first book, "The Killing Tide".
I think a reader could enjoy this as a standalone but I recommend reading them in order, just to know the characters. Each book features some of the main characters, but focus on two. A female and male who have a past and then meet up again in their job in the Cost Guard.
These books certainly keep you guessing as to how it is going to end.
I was given a contemporary copy by the author and Celebrate Lit and these are my opinions.
