Medusa
Book 8 of the NUMA Files series
When a secret American undersea laboratory researching a rare jellyfish called the Blue Medusa mysteriously disappears in Micronesia, it seems unrelated to an attack on a NUMA bathysphere near Bermuda. But after Kurt Austin rescues Joe Zavala and the stranded crew, he suspects the two incidents are connected. His investigation uncovers horrifying medical experiments, a powerful Chinese criminal organization, and a deadly new virus threatening a worldwide pandemic. With millions of lives at stake, Austin and the NUMA team must unravel the conspiracy before catastrophe strikes. This tense NUMA adventure suits readers who enjoy underwater rescues, sinister scientific secrets, and conspiracies with worldwide consequences.
