Official synopsis Publisher
Loch Ness holds secrets, ancient and deadly. Does a monster inhabit its depths, or is it just myth? Marine biologist Zachary Wallace knows, but the shock of his near-drowning as a child on the Loch has buried all memories of the incident. Now, a near-death experience suffered while on expedition in the Sargasso Sea has caused these long-forgotten memories to resurface. Unable to cope, his career all but over, he stumbles down a path of self-destruction until contact from his estranged father. Now Zach’s father is on trial for murdering his business partner, and only Zach can prove his innocence–if he is innocent. But doing so means confronting the nightmare that nearly killed him seventeen years ago.
