Jamie Hill walks into his local LGBT+ nightclub, Submerge, intending to make friends and have a good time. When he meets comedian Addie Crewe and her girlfriend Gina Wilson, his night is already looking up – but it's the man Gina introduces him to who really catches his eye. Miles Bradford seems to be everything Jamie could want in a man: smart, funny, kind. Jamie can't take his eyes off him.
But though Submerge might sparkle on the surface, Jamie knows that the club, just like himself, hides darker secrets in its depths ... and even Miles might not be as clean-cut as he appears.
A young author just starting out, Eleanor Musgrove likes to dabble in as many types of story as she can think of - just as long as she's writing. Her first novel, SUBMERGE, was released on November 1st, 2016. After an unexpected hiatus to care for a sick relative, she hopes to publish more very shortly, so watch this space...
A tale of 4 main characters, one lesbian couple and one gay couple, told from the POV of each person. I had some troubles with the police procedural part, that is some things were not very believable or logical. I wondered if the whole rainbow of secondary characters (I mean it: one drag queen, one trans* FTM, one asexual-aromantic, and so on) was really necessary or was inserted for didactic reasons. The attraction between Miles and Jamie seemed quite sudden to me, but then it was all right. I liked from the beginning the set relationship between Addie and Gina.
