Dear Reader,Let me tell you a little "behind-the-scenes" info about my newest novel, THE DEEPEST WATERS. Unlike my first two books, this one was inspired by true events. I had been watching this documentary about a paddlewheel steamship called the SS Central America, which sank after a hurricane in September, 1857. At the time, it was a huge national news story. Sixteen tons of gold, mined during the gold rush in California, went to the bottom of the sea, along with over 400 souls. It actually caused a panic on Wall Street. Among the handful of survivors, there was this honeymoon couple. During the worst of the storm they thought they had been parted forever. How they survived this ordeal and the way they were reunited was nothing short of miraculous. I thought, "Someone must have written a novel about this." I checked. No one had. So I did.
