The debut novel from J.S. Law, featuring new series lead Lieutenant Danielle Lewis, has been heralded as ‘addictively readable’ by Patricia Cornwell, ‘pacey, claustrophobic and utterly thrilling’ by Eva Dolan and ‘breathlessly plotted’ by Emlyn Rees.

Two hundred metres below the surface,
she will have nowhere to run and nowhere to hide.

A sailor hangs himself on board a naval submarine. Although ruled a suicide Lieutenant Danielle Lewis, the Navy’s finest Special Branch investigator, knows the sailor’s wife was found brutally murdered only days before.

Now Dan must enter the cramped confines of HMS Tenacity to interrogate the tight-knit, male crew and determine if there’s a link.

Standing alone in the face of extreme hostility and with a possible killer on board, Dan soon realises that she may have to choose between the truth and her own survival.

The pressure is rising and Dan’s time is running out…

Pacey, claustrophobic and utterly thrilling

A brilliant debut. Breathlessly plotted. Deeply disturbing
Matt Hilton
Tense, claustrophobic, and totally absorbing, this book should be on every thriller reader's radar - or should that be sonar? Absolutely superb
William Sutton, www.william-sutton.co.uk
I recommend watching out for this exciting debut author, a former submariner who knows his subaqueous stuff and has delivered a narrative that will make anyone breathless

A gripping read ... I don't remember being this captivated by a debut novel since Lee Child published Killing Floor ... A stand out read ... 5/5 is a given

A searing thriller ... The claustrophobic drama which unfolds is breathtaking ... A must read for fans of psychological crime thrillers
Clare Mackintosh, author of <i>I Let You Go</i>
J. S. Law's taut crime novel oozes authenticity. I read this in a day and can't wait for the next in what will undoubtedly be an explosive series
The Times
An impressive debut. . . Law knows what he's writing about, and it shows. The sexist antagonism of the men coupled with the cramped conditions make for gripping, entertaining reading
The Sun
If Law manages to hold his course into nuclear noir, this series could go for as long as the atom-powered Tenacity

In his debut novel, J.S. Law has crafted a thrilling suspense . . . Law ends Tenacity with a perfect segue into a sequel. It can't come too soon
