Danger from Fifty Feet Below

<p>After living more than twenty years in the dreary Pacific Northwest climate my friend Carol and I headed to the Caymans. This trip proved to be different than any other as it marked the start of a new phase of my life underwater. With pristine water beautiful fish and intricate coral at my fingertips I officially caught the scuba diving bug. As I reveled in the glorious undersea world and one dive turned into several hundred I had no idea that my relatively calm life would soon be tossed upside down while on a trip to Kona Hawaii. </p><p>The excursion began so innocently. I spotted an unusual rock during a dive in Kona stuck it in my pocket and forgot about it until we returned home. Suddenly strange events began to occur as I handled my special rock and shared it with others. Perplexed I began researching the rock-not knowing that very soon Carol and I would be running for our lives pursued by higher-ups at a large pharmaceutical company who wanted what we had and were willing to do everything in their power to acquire it. </p><p>This fast-paced deep-sea adventure shares the story of an intriguing find from Hawaiian waters and how it changed my life forever.</p>
