Review
Pyne has woven together a tale of superheroes and supervillains and mixed in a smattering of romance just to add spice. The problem is, it's hard to tell who is the villain and who is the hero, it keeps you guessing to the end.

Deep Beneath the Surface is a fast paced mystery/thriller with all the expected twists and turns. The setting of underwater salvage and the unsolved murder adds spice to the plot, then throw in a bit of romance and intrigue and voila!. You'll want to keep reading until the end. A hard book to put down.
