This story just adds to that, some sort of weird plague and a deep sea expedition? WINNING!! I absolutely loved this story. It had all the best psychological spooks that we expect from a King-esque horror, but in a unique and grotesque way. Nick Cutter is absolutely being added to my auto-read list of authors and I cannot wait to read his backlog. The Deep was creepy, entertaining, spine-tingling horror....more
