For a century, it hid below the waves.It's the year 2012: a hundred years after the sinking of the Titanic. Two of the world's most popular corporations, each headed by an eccentric and brilliant man, race to find a way to raise and preserve the doomed luxury ocean liner. Two multibillion-dollar technologies are tested in a plan to raise the ship that will stun the world and create media feeding frenzy. The rival CEOs gather together the twenty-first century's most brilliant minds, including Roy Emerson, technical problem solver and the prodigy behind the glass microsphere; computer geniuses Donald and Edith Craig, darkly fixated by the enigmatic mathematical Mandelbrot-Set; and the grand old man of deep-water operations, Jason Bradley, pilot of a state-of-the-art high pressure heliox suit named Jim.Two adversary technologies under four hundred atmospheres of pressure at the bottom of the ocean. To each of the undersea explorers, the quest to uncover the secrets of the wreck and to reclaim her for all time becomes an obsession - and for some, a fatal one.
