Something hungry, relentless, and “absolutely terrifying” is surfacing off the California coast (Marc Cameron, New York Times–bestselling author). A young woman is dragged into the depths of the Pacific by a force of unimaginable strength; deep sea divers descend into the ink-black waters and never return; and when a small fishing boat is capsized and a band of migrants are swallowed up whole, … migrants are swallowed up whole, the lone, terrified survivor can only utter three words . . . los diablos rojos.
Professional scuba diver Will Sturman and brilliant oceanographer Valerie Martell know what they’re up against. It’s something more ferocious than the jaws of a great white shark . . . deadlier and quicker than a shoal of piranha . . . a mass of predators that has evolved over millions of years to perfect their reason to exist: to kill and to feed.
Now, a thousand strong and counting, they’re heading toward shallow waters where the prey is easy. For Will and Valerie, it’s a race against time to stop the world’s oceans—and its shores—from turning blood red.

Absolutely terrifying… and all the more frightening because it could happen.
Brilliantly terrifying… Lockwood snaps hold of you and doesn’t let go… With nerve-tingling suspense, Below is a thriller you won’t easily put down — or forget.
Probably the best undersea writer to come forth in many a year. While I didn’t need the romantic angle it didn’t detract too much from the true horror of what’s down there!
I could not put this book down, had to know what would happen next.
Living on the Gulf Coast and having done plenty of deep sea fishing, I’ve seen some of the creatures that patrol beneath the surface of the ocean.
If you think sharks are the only thing to worry about, think again. Ryan Lockwood has brought us some truly terrifying creatures. They’re real, not fictional or supernatural, and I would hope to never …
Loved it! Great drama. Easy read
Good book
This book could very well be true or a lot of it. We don’t know what is in our oceans. They are the least explored areas on earth. What lies beneath we don’t know for sure. What we need to do is protect what we have now it can’t be replaced. You can’t go to the store and buy a coral bed, or a school of whales or an iceberg nor is it possible to …
I wasnt really impressed. It was slow .
Pretty good creature book, especially if you loved Jaws
Very good read!
Huge killer squids. Who’d a thought.
Good read
This book is absolutely great. I loved it. Full of action. Scary. Unpredictable but realistic. The story flowed smoothly and was hard to stop reading. I hope this author writes more like this.
Totally new version of Jaws. Writing and storyline is very good.
If you like the genre it’s a very good read. Set up well to keep the readers interest.
This was a very boring book on a subject that should have been a page turner like Jaws! This book spends way too much time on the lost love of one of the divers and not enough time on the Humboldt squid attacking and killing people in the ocean! Sometimes it would get scary and have me reading fast, but then for some unknown reason it would have …
A real page-turner!!!!
Wasn’t scary at all, very predictable,boring at times.
