The planet had secrets it never revealed, until it was too
late.
Centuries ago, mankind's only hope for survival were the seven
vessels specially fitted to send the last survivors of Earth to a planet
named New Earth. Seven space ships that became floating cities once they
landed on the water-only world teeming with edible seafood, as well as
dangerous creatures.
Lt. Jace Novick, of the ship
UnderPlatinum, is sent to sister ship UnderSilver to see
if he can help find a possible solution to their growing problem. Food is beginning
to run low, catches are scarcer, and the tension between ships
is increasing as starvation becomes imminent.
Lt. Commander Rhone
Derth has created a security device called wrap shields to protect
Silver from repeated attacks by the planet's hostile monsters. But
it seems the shields are also keeping the fish away as well. Jace
believes he has an answer, but it means he and Rhone must work together
despite Rhone's antagonism toward him, and the short time he's been
allotted before he must return to his own ship.
Together, they
try to discover a way to survive as the other vessels turn on each other in a
desperate battle for the last of the dwindling food supply, not knowing
that another, more malevolent being is watching them from the depths.
Warning! Contains loss of oxygen, vicious sea creatures,
massive destruction, scientific theories, near-drowning, subsonic
bursts, questionable seafood, alien artifacts, and two people trying to
survive what could be the complete annihilation of their species.
