About this listen

In the turquoise waters of the Caribbean, something lethal is on the move.

Scuba divers travel from all over the world to visit the little island of Bonaire, with its crystal clear waters and a host of beautiful marine life. After three years in the “Diver's Paradise”, divemaster Boone Fischer thought he’d seen it all, but on a routine afternoon dive, he spots something that will turn his tranquil life upside down.

From the arid shores of the ABC Islands to the tropical jungles of Venezuela, and from the ocean depths of the Southern Caribbean to the lush islands of the Northern Leewards, Deep Shadow takes Boone and the listeners on an action-packed adventure filled with danger and suspense.

"Every damn sentence in Deep Shadow vibrates with authenticity — whether it’s diving at the edge of an abyss, pushing an open fisherman to its limits in a rough sea, or detailing a claustrophobic smuggler submarine. You can smell the sweat on the bad guys, and the good guys (and girls) never seem contrived. Deep Shadow is accurate, paced like an anxious thoroughbred, and highly entertaining. I can’t wait for the next one." - Michael Reisig, best-selling author of The Road to Key West series.

"The age old adage of write what you know, becomes very important when you write about a technical subject like scuba diving. When you get all the details right, and throw in just the right amounts of action, humor, romance, and suspense, you have a novel like this." - Wayne Stinnett, best-selling author of Fallen Out.

“Deep Shadow has it all—Suspense, Thriller… and a little bit of love. Sullivan is obviously a fan of the culture, climate, and diving in the Caribbean. The way he described each island and each dive that they made is painted in this amazing color that I felt like I was there. Overall, Deep Shadow will probably be up there with my Best of 2018 books. 5 out of 5 Stars.” - Brian’s Book Blog.

“I was immediately drawn into the Clancy-esque storyline, but was equally turned on by the romance at the center. Props to this writer for giving us both a male and female heroine, and a romance that works within and amplifies the storyline. A delicious, sexy, action packed maritime adventure that will keep you turning the pages well into the night!" - Gabra Zackman, author of “The Bod Squad” series.

“If you’re planning to island-hop the Caribbean by boat or plane, you couldn’t have a better guide than Nick Sullivan, a great storyteller and a spout of knowledge about (to list a few) craft large and small, sea life, scuba diving, weaponry, hydraulics, geography, navigation, island history, food and drink. But he doesn’t hit you over the head with the research, and it enhances rather than interrupts the tale.”- Peter Johnson, author of Grant’s Indian.

What the critics say

"Deep Shadow has it all - Suspense, Thriller… and a little bit of love. Sullivan is obviously a fan of the culture, climate, and diving in the Caribbean. The way he described each island and each dive that they made is painted in this amazing color that I felt like I was there. I can also tell that a ton of research (and non-fiction elements) went into Deep Shadow… everything felt incredibly plausible. The characters were likable and easy to root for (especially Boone) - you just wanted them to do well and to come out on top. Overall, Deep Shadow will probably be up there with my Best of 2018 books. 5 out of 5 Stars.” (Brian’s Book Blog)

Deep Series Bk1 set its hook in this reader

Hot on the heels of listening to Mr. Sullivan's "Zombie Bigfoot," I had to continue with this excellent story-teller's first tale of the deep. The book introduces us to his two dive-masters, Boone Fisher (yay) and Emily Durand (sorry...not a fan) as their knowledge of all things "below the surface" come to play in this tale of a Russian narcotic submarine which gets "re-purposed" by a group of (let's call them) "non-Russians." I enjoyed the tale Nick weaved. And, (spoiler) the book really ends with a BANG! And, as I write this, I am kneedeep into his 4th Deep Series book, "Deep Focus." So, I had to have liked this one in order to stick with him for more tales of the deep, yeah?

Felt like I was in the Caribbean

I really enjoyed this audiobook, as a diver obsessed by the hobby I really enjoy books that are diving themed.
This story did not disappoint.

Everything from the incredible detail conveyed and great narration I felt as though I could close my eyes and be a part of the story.

I'm excited for the next book.

Perfection!

What a great story! It was a wonderful combination of Caribbean island adventure, danger, romance and humour. The characters have distinct and quirky personalities and I came to really like them (the good guys, that is). The author/narrator is actually a professional narrator who loves to scuba dive and this is his second book. May we all thank him for picking up a pen (keyboard?) and writing this engrossing tale which serves as a great escape from a chilly Canadian spring week.

Nick Sullivan's second novel is called "Deep Cut" and the characters Boone Fischer and Emily Durand are back in that one! I am wasting no time and will start it immediately as I'm not ready to leave these characters yet.
