Synopsis

In2 Deep is an action thriller, and from a new author who knows what it is like to be under fire. In2Deep is the direct result of the author's combat experience. In2Deep is a stylish and action-packed thriller with a nautical setting. In2Deep is fiction, but reads like fact, and that is because of the author's hands-on experience of being at war. Former Royal Navy diver Nick Carter uses his special skills to plunder antiquities from virgin wrecks on the Mediterranean Sea bed. His wife, the love of his life, is one of the 191 victims of the Madrid train bombings of March 2004. For Nick, the terrorists destroyed his world when they took her life. Three years later and Nick Carter is illegally diving off the coast when he is boarded, attacked and left for dead. Along with money and possessions, the pirates have stolen a pendant that is all Nick has to remind him of his dead wife. Nick pursues his attackers to Morocco. Boarding their launch after dark he discovers an extensive cache of modern small arms and a Geiger counter. Realising he has stumbled across something significant, Nick calls a former RN colleague, and Miles, a British secret service operative is not long in appearing and reveals that the man behind the Madrid train bombing is the same man who stole his only physical link with his wife, the pendant. Hachim Hadda is not just a small time pirate, but a 'wanted' terrorist

Media Reviews
Reviews Another compelling read by Tony Groom. Thank God he's turned his considerable writing skills to fiction this time, because the plot is chillingly realistic. In this page-turning novel Groom is writing about what he knows. An exciting plot is all the more believable because it's grounded in his experience and the realism shines through every page. A great plot with a realistic cast of characters and a 'hero' whose flaws make him utterly believable - I can't wait for the sequel. Navy News
Author Bio
Author Tony Groom is fifty one. He lives in Portsmouth with his wife Marie and son Harvey. His hobbies are sailing and writing. He was in the navy for ten years, and his specialist job varied from bomb and mine disposal to attack swimmer and what is known in the trade as bottom-cleaner. This underwater day-job involved the recovery of crashed aircraft, bodies, and working alongside the SAS and SBS. Tony Groom served in the Falklands Conflict behind enemy lines, and worked on UXB's lodged inside British warships. Nowadays he takes on private contracts which employ his old skills, and tries to write every day. In 2 Deep is his first novel, and follows his highly successful memoir DIVER, which dealt with his time in the Falklands and deep sea saturation diving.
