One of the most thrilling novels of the sea to have been written,
Let Not the Deep tells the story of a tumultuous night in the
storm-ravaged seas off the Scilly Isles. The freighter Caledonia is
carrying not just a cargo of steel plate, but also a group of
schoolboy passengers on an educational trip. When she suffers an
engine breakdown in a terrifying hurricane, the cargo is bound to
shift, and the need for rescue is all the more urgent since one of
the boys is the son of the Prime Minster. To the volunteers on the
Maeve Corrigan, the Scillies Lifeboat, it makes no difference at
all that the eyes of the world's news media are following their
every movement. Their sole aim, along with the RAF helicopter crew
scrambled to the stricken vessel, is to save lives. It falls to
John Nichols to command the Caledonia in this horrifying crisis.
With the cargo shifting, the Caledonia foundering and the storm
exploding around him, the night is very long indeed. Let Not the
Deep is a story of cowardice and courage, of deeply felt emotion
and powerfully realized drama.
