But little do they know that the real danger lies beneath the surface.



With the GPS coordinates of Mayan Gold, salvaging it becomes Rick's new obsession. Determined to reclaim what was lost during their encounter, Rick and his crew dive deep into the ocean's depths. However, their search takes an unexpected turn when they stumble upon a sunken DC-3 airplane, owned by a ruthless Colombian cartel.



Now, Rick and his crew find themselves caught in a dangerous game of cat and mouse as the cartel relentlessly pursues them. With their lives on the line, they must navigate treacherous waters, battling not only the elements but also the merciless forces determined to protect their illicit property.

In a race against time, the battle for survival becomes intertwined with the pursuit of unimaginable riches, leading to a heart-stopping climax that will leave readers breathless.



Deep Waters is a pulse-pounding, high-stakes thriller that explores the depths of human resilience and the lengths people will go to protect what they believe is rightfully theirs. Dive into this gripping tale of adventure, danger, and the untold secrets that lie beneath the surface of the deep blue sea.

This isn’t even readable with so many grammatical errors. You should be ashamed putting out something that wasn’t edited. I was going to say it was produced with AI but there wouldn’t be the large number of errors in this book. It’s a shame because the series has been good up until now. I’m on to the next author…

Deep Waters had a lot of typos and sometimes the story did not make sense. Certain people showed up in two places at once. I do not think any editing was done for this book. Also I feel like a lot of the action was way over the top. I like the characters but I hope the remaining books are back on track.

Deep Waters is full of deep action

Once I dove into the pages of Deep Waters, I couldn't get out til the very end. This book is full of action, adventure, drama an humor that comes at you in waves and keeps you in the story.

Another great read - they just keep getting better!

Rick and the gang are going strong in Eric Stone’s latest. I grew up in the panhandle and love all the ‘real life’ references. I surely hope he keeps them coming!!!

Book is great

The book itself is great. However, there are quite a few errors in spelling in this digital version. Also majority of the images in this digital copy are unreadable, due to being too small.

Great plot

Another page turner with a great plot but the proofreading & copy editing are nonexistent, so bad it is actually impossible to comprehend in some spots.
