The Devil's Trench

Professional poacher and hired harvester of rare and exotic ocean delicacies, Ig Hawkins only has one person on her mind. Her mother, who suffers with a rare and aggressive form of ALS. Soon, she's taken up by the Resistance, who offer her a cure to save her mother if she helps them extract samples from the Mother of the Sea. The Mother of Monsters. Lurking in the Devil's Trench (the deepest known trench in the Pacific Ocean), is Mother. Surrounding her are her aggressive offspring, like bees protecting their queen. While Ig and her team fight to extract the samples they need to not only save Ig's mom, but humanity, nothing is certain. Madness crawls through the very fabric of reality. The Devil's Trench holds only darkness and foreboding...and madness, Ig discovers her mom's disease isn't by chance, but planned. Can Ig and her team extract the DNA samples from Mother before the offspring devour them? Can she save her own mom? In the heart of The Devil's Trench, only death rears its ugly head.
