Action, suspense, mystery, political red tape, ocean, technology packed right at the beginning with hints of Sci fi going. You're talking my language. I was able to connect to with the main characters easily. Holy cow, living longer than 120,000 years? Those two gentlemen had to come from outer space in order to live that long. I am looking forward to learning more about these two characters and the heroine. Interesting how it will play out in the story.
