The Abyss Beneath the Thames

By Francis Whitmore

THE ABYSS BENEATH THE THAMES

"How far would you go to save someone who is already lost?"

Thomas Wood is an architect of pure logic. But when his family moves into a damp London house, his reality begins to rot. A briny smell leaks through the floorboards, and a cavernous breathing echoes behind the walls.

The nightmare deepens with the arrival of his silent cousin, Isla-a girl who does not seem to breathe when she sleeps. Blinded by a pathological savior complex, Thomas risks everything to cure her. But his wife, Fiona, sees what his rational mind denies: Isla is a vessel for an ancient, hungry entity waiting to rise from the Thames.

On December 7th, trapped under the river in the suffocating Blackwall Tunnel, Thomas learns the terrifying truth. The illness is a ritual. And he is the marked sacrifice.

A chilling gothic thriller about the limits of empathy and the fight to protect your own sanctuary.
