36,000 FEET DOWN, NO ONE IS COMING.

Poseidon-1 is humanity’s most ambitious outpost: a multibillion-dollar complex of towers, laboratories, and drilling platforms near the bottom of the Mariana Trench. Its mission: extract Nerunium, the rarest metal on Earth.

For marine biologist Dr. Emma Sullivan, this was meant to be two weeks of danger pay. Just enough to secure her ailing father’s future. But the crew wants nothing to do with her—she’s the reason their last rig was shut down, and at this depth, old grudges can turn deadly.

The first signs of trouble come from the instruments. Material failures with no obvious cause. Readings from the Nerunium seam that should be impossible. A repeating signal from the seabed no one can explain.

Then they find something buried in the trench.

An abandoned Soviet facility, dark for forty years and missing from every modern chart. Inside are sealed rooms, unanswered questions, and evidence of a discovery that was never meant to leave the ocean floor.

Sullivan begins following the evidence. But every answer makes the situation worse. Something down there is reacting to Poseidon-1—to its machinery, to the Nerunium beneath it, and increasingly to the people who came looking for it.

A storm has cut them off from the surface. Systems are beginning to fail. And seven miles of black water separate the crew from safety.

For fans of Michael Crichton, James Rollins and A.G. Riddle, Seven Miles Down is a science-fueled deep-sea thriller that turns ‘just one more chapter’ into a very late night.
