Description
From Will Dean, acclaimed author of the “breathless” (New York Times) The Last One, which also went viral as Marc Sebastian’s book club pick aboard the 9-month world cruise, comes his next nightmarish read: THE CHAMBER (Atria/Emily Bestler Books). And Then There Were None meets The Last Breath in this tense and claustrophobic locked-room thriller following a team of divers working to make repairs deep in the North Sea.
Six experienced divers are sealed inside a hyperbaric chamber for their own safety. Rapid decompression would be fatal. They must breathe helium to survive in their uncomfortably close quarters. They’re entirely dependent on each other and the ship’s crew. The smallest mistake could be lethal. Then one of them is found dead in his bunk.
They have four days of decompression to go before the locked hatch to the chamber can be safely opened. When yet another diver is found dead, everyone is on edge. Is something in the chamber faulty? Or is one of them a killer?
And will any of them still be alive by the time the four days is up or will the pressure destroy them all?
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Will Dean grew up in the UK. After studying at the LSE and working in London, he settled in Sweden where he built a wooden house in the middle of a vast forest, and it's from this base that he compulsively reads and writes. His books have been shortlisted for the National Book Awards (UK) and named Telegraph book of the year.
