This book by ex pro diver Jim Limbrick is a tribute to all 58, 20th Century professional divers who lost their lives whilst playing their part in effecting the extraction of oil and gas from UK northern waters, specifically the North Sea, during the years 1971 to 1999. Diving and Offshore background is given, with all deceased diver's names and nationalities, fatality dates, diver's ages, accident locations, platforms, employers, equipment used, water depths, and details of accidents, all as far as is known, or can be told. With subsequent Safety Regulations and recommendations, this book is a must for all those people interested in diving, and especially budding divers of any persuasion.

When Diving Boss Jim Martin agrees to set up a Deep Diving gold recovery operation requested by the British Government Special Intelligence Service, little does he know that he will be involved in a mystery death, treachery, violence, and an attempt on his life; that of the head of the SIS; some of his colleagues; and his future wife. The gold belongs to the Ruler of a small Arab country. More importantly to the Ruler, however, sunk with the gold in a recent shipwreck, is the Golden Desert Rose, a priceless family heirloom, thought to have been lost forever to the Ruler and his country in almost one hundred metres of water. All of this, with a little touch of humour on the side.
