A deep-sea sci-fi thriller
ABOVE, THE WORLD IS DYING. BELOW, SOMETHING IS WAKING.
As a new pandemic scorches the surface, humanity’s last hope sinks below the waves—into Tethys, a self-contained dome built to prove we can survive the deep.
But something’s gone wrong. Beneath miles of pressure and silence, people are changing. Systems are failing. And the hum—a low, endless vibration inside the dome walls—has started to whisper.
Ellis, a grounded engineer, and Vika, a geneticist chasing a dangerous breakthrough, must fight to understand the signal before it rewrites them—and everyone else. In the trench beyond the dome, something vast waits and watches.
Step Below the Horizons… The first thing you notice is the silence. Not the hush of a quiet room, or the dead still of a desert, or even the vacuum of space. This silence is different. Dense. Heavy. Almost alive. No wind. No rain. No birdsong. Just a low, endless hush pressing in from all sides — as if the sea itself is holding its breath.
D.B. Waterman writes cinematic science fiction about fragile sanctuaries, fierce people, and the strange, relentless pressure of the deep. Below Horizons is a standalone techno-thriller set beneath the Atlantic, where silence isn’t empty—and signals have teeth.
