Crushing Depths by Dani Pettrey

When an accident claims the life of an oil-rig worker on the first drilling platform off the North Carolina coast, Coast Guard investigators Rissi Dawson and Mason Rogers are sent to take the case. Tensions surrounding the oil rig are high and the death has everyone on edge. Environmental activists are threatening to do whatever it takes to stop the structure from being completed, while rumors are being whispered about ancient curses surrounding this part of the ocean.

Mounting evidence shows the death may not have been an accident at all. Was he killed by one of the activists or, perhaps more frighteningly, a member of his own crew? Rissi and Mason have to sort through not only a plethora of suspects, but also their own past and attraction to each other.

Just as the case seems like it'll break open, worse news arrives. A tropical storm has turned their way and soon they're cut off from any rescue--and right where the killer wants them. It's a race to discover his identity before he eliminates the threat they pose.

Another great book by Dani Pettrey.  Coast Guard investigators Rissi Dawson and Mason Rogers have known each other for years.  They were in the same foster home as teens.  Mason looked after her and made sure Rissi was safe from the foster father.  It's been years since they have seen each other.  But Rissi still remembers her crush.  Rissi and Mason are sent on a case involving a death on a drilling platform.  It seemed like there were two different stories going on.  Noah, the one in charge of the CGIS group, and Brooke, a CGIS medic.  It was still a good book and hard to put down.  

I recommend this book to everyone who likes a good mystery.

I was given this book by Bethany House Publishers via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.  I was not compensated in any awy.
