A USA TODAY BESTSELLER

From the Pulitzer Prizewinning author of Angel Down comes a scientifically accurate thriller about a scuba diver whos been swallowed by an eighty-foot, sixty-ton sperm whale and has only one hour to escape before his oxygen runs out.

Jay Gardiner has given himself a fools errandto find the remains of his deceased father in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Monastery Beach. He knows its a long shot, but Jay feels its the only way for him to lift the weight of guilt he has carried since his dads death by suicide the previous year.

The dive begins well enough, but the sudden appearance of a giant squid puts Jay in very real jeopardy, made infinitely worse by the arrival of a sperm whale looking to feed. Suddenly, Jay is caught in the squids tentacles and drawn into the whales mouth where he is pulled into the first of its four stomachs. He quickly realizes he has only one hour before his oxygen tanks run outone hour to defeat his demons and escape the belly of a whale.

Suspenseful and cinematic, Whalefall is an powerfully humane (Owen King, New York Times bestselling author) thriller about a young man who has given up on lifeonly to find a reason to live in the most dangerous and unlikely of places.
