DEAD WATERS
by Ania Drew
A coming-of-age cosmic horror story that gleefully watches the dissolution of masculinity.After an attack from an unseen enemy, the crew of a tiny Nantucket whaling vessel finds themselves stranded in DEAD WATERS. With food stores running low, the young Captain Owen orders the remainder of the surviving crew to draw lots. An order that will force fourteen-year-old Carter, the new cabin boy, to kill his surrogate father. But there are darker things lurking in the placid waters. An ancient book twists the Captain’s mind, an otherworldly entity strikes a deal with the traumatized cabin boy. Told in three parts, Ania Drew takes you through hell and back!
