DNF. I just couldn't get into this book.
v10's review against another edition

I started this in May, put it down for months and just finished the last couple chapters today. I remember enjoying it while I was reading it, but I don't remember hoping to find out what happens or thinking about it during my 5 month hiatus. The end didn't make sense, presumably because I've forgotten something important in the meantime.

Although The Depths sounds like a promising adventure thriller that takes readers into the depths of the ocean, it only manages to trudge along like an anchor, weighted down by continuity issues and lackluster writing.
The story itself is about Jen Adams, a research assistant who finds out her son is kidnapped at the exact same moment she finds her boss murdered (sigh), who is dragged by British Marine to a secret undersea station that was abandoned 30 years ago in order to find the secret that her blackmailers are after. Nobody knows exactly what that secret might be, but they're certain to know it when they see it unless the blackmailers get there first.
Wait ... what? As the novel transforms itself into race-against-the-clock predictable straight to digital script, readers can expect to grow increasing frustrated by the nick-of-time saves, inappropriately timed sentiments, and a writing style that stops everything in its tracks over and over again.

I liked the premise of the book, but sometimes it was a bit choppy.
