Lukas Landon is trapped under 150 feet of water in an overturned shrimp trawler at the bottom of the ocean. The only thing keeping him alive is an air bubble in the ship’s bow. But time is running out. Landon doesn’t know if he will survive... or if he even deserves to. A former war correspondent, Landon’s once-promising life took a steep nosedive. Yet he has one hope for redemption: a series of in-depth stories on the Philomena, an unusual South Carolina shrimp boat skippered by decorated former army sergeant Clarita Esteban. A Black woman trying to get by in a white man’s world, Clarita has assembled a crew of misfits as deeply wounded as herself. As Landon slowly earns the trust of the disparate crew, uncovering their pasts—and the boat’s shaded history—he keeps his own story and the events that unmoored his life a secret.
