It's another glorious week aboard the Calypso, a luxury scuba-dive boat filled with avid divers, friends and families, excited to explore the deep water of the Sea of Cortez when the worst possible thing happens - one of them vanishes.

Catalina Rodrigues is an experienced dive master aboard the boat, spending every moment possible in her beloved ocean. She's successfully led hundreds of divers on underwater excursions with no incidents until now.

Cleared of any wrongdoing in the devastating tragedy for one of the families, Catalina returns home grappling with the fact that she was blindsided by divers she had been trusted to lead underwater. She struggles to forgive herself for her responsibility in the accident and to adjust to life on land after living on a dive boat and traveling the world for so many years. She hides the catastrophic event from her parents. She's certain she will never dive below the surface of her beloved ocean again.

Meanwhile, Bertie Clark, one of the vacationing divers, befriends Catalina and offers her support as Catalina works through her grief. Back in Michigan, Bertie grapples with her own family dynamics that haven't changed since she was a child. When will they recognize that she is a different person now?

But someone else is not so forgiving about what happened on the Calypso and is determined to make Catalina and Bertie pay for the diver's death.

Catalina might have been unaware of the events leading up to the tragedy on the boat, but can she figure out the threatening clues this time before Bertie, her new-found friend, suffers the same fate as the scuba diver?
