À propos de cet audio
One of the greatest breakthroughs in human history. A secret that was never supposed to be found. And a crisis that cannot be stopped.
Deep in the Caribbean Sea, a nuclear submarine is forced to suddenly abort its mission under mysterious circumstances. Strange facts begin to emerge that lead naval investigator John Clay to a small group of marine biologists who are quietly on the verge of making history.
With the help of a powerful computer system, Alison Shaw and her team are preparing to translate the first two-way conversation with the planet's second smartest species. But the team discovers much more from their dolphins than they ever expected when a secret object is revealed on the ocean floor. One that was never supposed to be found.
Alison was sure she would never trust the military again. However, when an unknown group immediately becomes interested in her work, Alison realizes John Clay may be the only person she can trust. Together, they must piece together a dangerous puzzle, and the most frightening piece is the trembling in Antarctica.
To make matters worse, someone from the inside is trying to stop them. Now, time is running out...and our understanding of the world is about to change forever.

A mixture of sci-fi, marine and human interaction making an exciting adventure tale
The entire story held my attention from start to finish. Well written and Scott Brick is an excellent narrator

An unexpected gem
I came across this book while browsing through the military thriller category on Audible. I'd never heard of the author and seen no other advertisements for the book. The fact that Scott Brick narrated it was a plus, as I had already found myself a fan after his performances of some of Gregg Hurwitz's works. The synopsis of an undersea mystery and communications with dolphins peaked my interest and I dove right in.
Overall, it rather enjoyable. Michael C. Grumley writes quite well, portraying scenes and characters compellingly. I have zero complaints about the prose or how he plots the book. I cared about what happened to the characters, how they felt, and sympathized with their goals. The scenes and action were absorbing to the point where I had to pull myself out in order to focus on the road while driving.
Other than some quibbles and doubts about some explanations regarding evolution, I have few complaints. One is that some of the drama seems to have been generated by oddly ignored opportunities to communicate. It may be that protocol made these opportunities impossible, but it still seems to me that some characters kept quiet when they should not have. The other problem is the one-dimensional antagonist. It appeared as if a deeper mystery were involved in his motivations, but nothing was ever ultimately revealed. This left him less compelling, in the end, even as I revelled in his fall.
None of the complaints I had diminished my enjoyment of the book. I'd certainly recommend it and I will explore the author's other works, too.

Enjoyable entertainment
Although the science might not all hold up… I still enjoyed Breakthrough. You do need to know that I’m also a woman who rushed home, as a child, to watch Flipper on TV sooo that tells you how I feel about dolphins.
In a nutshell, something is found on the ocean floor that is not meant to be discovered.
Meanwhile, a team of marine biologists are working on developing a human dolphin communication device.
This had the same feel as Jurassic park for me… a rip roaring adventure with plenty of characters to care about.

Thoroughly enjoyable, and infuriating… In point of fact, I went through all my emotions. It was a very refreshing and cathartic book to read and listen to. Scott Bricks narrations are always top-drawer. Masterful writing

Great Beginning
This is my second Grumley book and I loved it even more than Monument. Great series beginning and good characters. Ordered the second in the chain ten minutes after the finish. Great job Michael; great job Scott!

Excellent First Book for the author.
It is hard to believe it is Michael Grumley’s first book. You never know which characters will make it to the end or how it will all turn out ok. The characters are compelling and it has a good story.
Scott Brick is also a great narrator. I will listen to anything he reads.

Great story and Great Characters
I found this book while looking for new reads/listens on Audible. I was searching by narrator Scott Brick. I live Scott's style and took a chance on this book and was immediately drawn in by the characters and story line. I especially loved the science aspects of this novel. IMIS (I hope I got that right) is a most interesting but of technology and I hope one day to hear that this but if tech comes to fruition. If you enjoy a bit of sci-fi, military and political fiction, this series must be in your list. Michael, I hope you write many more novels for me to enjoy while at work driving equipment! Keep the words flowing
Jonny

Solid storry with an excellent performance
A delightful classic first contact story without the usual invasion plot. The story is driven by clever scientists who solve problems. Well done and highly recommended! I'd gladly explore more books by this author.
