After trailing spouse Marah Lenaerts suffers her third miscarriage in as many years, her husband Eden surprises her with a vacation to Malaysia, hoping it will lift her spirits. And it does, as they enjoy trading the bustle of their Shanghai life behind for the idyllic tropical paradise. But while on a diving excursion, they’re taken hostage by a group of terrorists, who take them to a remote … island and hold them there for ransom. The longer that time drags on, though, the more doubts Marah begins to have about their captors’ true motivations.

Good page turner and great focus on the victim.
A holiday gone wrong, and every traveler’s worst nightmare when a couple is kidnapped while on vacation in Malaysia. Kirk Kjeldsen delivers in The Depths — a tense and action-packed story that seems built for the big screen. Breathless suspense!
Great Read…Couldn’t put it down until the end.
great book
Too much repetitiveness of minutiae. There are multiple instances in which the description of the same thing over and over takes pages and pages but the same result could be accomplished in 3 or 4 sentences. I almost didn’t finish it.
Very suspenseful and hard to put down. Completely unsuspected plot. I was a little disappointed with the ending. Maybe a sequel?
Gets off to an interesting start. A whole lot of nothing in the middle. All is revealed in the end.
Fast, great read
I figured out halfway through who was behind the kidnapping and found much of the story repetitive. Some exciting parts towards the end if you are willing to suspend your disbelief.
Good read. Kept me turning the pages. Unexpected endIng. Waiting for the next one.
Good book and fast read.
A short read. Characters were not fully developed or believable. Predictable ending. Just did not entertain.
This book was okay, too many unneeded facts, and or things to me. Not sure I would recommend it.
Overall, a good read. The characters were well developed and the pace was good.
This was a tedious read. The main character was constantly struggling with little or no reprieve. Her tenacity was not believable. The ending was a shocker though.
I figured out the plot early on. It was good but dragged on and was repetitious.
This book appeared to be a story of the tragic losses of a woman and how those loses affected her relationship with her husband. However, it ended amazingly shocking. I was shocked and did not have a clue to the real story until the very end. It was easy to read and finish in one sitting.
What starts out as a peaceful day of scuba diving turns to terror for a vacationing couple who are taken hostage and held for ransom deep in the jungles of Malaysia. Suspenseful and fast-moving with a bit of a twist at the end. I enjoyed it.

The ending was unexpected.
