Depth

Yuna Moen is an interpreter, trained to resolve friction in international negotiations. She deals in nuances, in subtle shifts of tone, and the spaces between words. But nothing in her training has prepared her for the translation she has been tasked with three kilometres beneath the Norwegian Sea.

Following the events of SIGNAL, the human station at the bottom of the trench is no longer alone. The watcher has spoken. But communication is a double-edged sword, and every message parsed brings new questions — and new fractures. As national alliances crumble on the surface and the pressure mounts in the deep, Yuna must navigate a delicate negotiation where a single mistranslation could cost humanity its future.

DEPTH is the second book in the BENEATH trilogy — a cerebral, atmospheric science fiction novel that explores the limits of language, the weight of contact, and what happens when the conversation finally begins.
