"Seven years ago Atagaris set off on a voyage to the Mariana Trench to film a "mockumentary" bringing to life ancient sea creatures of legend. It was lost at sea with all hands. Some have called it a hoax; others have called it a maritime tragedy. Now, a new crew has been assembled. But this time they're not out to entertain. Some seek to validate their life's work. Some seek the greatest hunt of all. Some seek the truth. But for the ambitious young scientist Victoria Stewart this is a voyage to uncover the fate of the sister she lost. Whatever the truth may be, it will only be found below the waves"--
Really interesting story, a fanatsy horror with enough science mixed in to feel really convincing. I love how diverse the cast of characters is, with both men and women, disabled and abled, including an autistic character. And the woman-loving-woman relationship that develops is one of the most heartachingly-beautiful I've ever read.
