Bleeding Sea (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781685134839)

"Is this how the world ends, not with a bang, but with an invasive species that destroys the planet's most important ecosystem? If K.A. Kirtland's Bleeding Sea doesn't frighten you then you're not paying attention." -Daniel Burke, author of Red Screen

When a mysterious organism starts killing off the oceans, can an inexperienced scientist stop the deadly red tide from spreading?

Gulf of Mexico. Diane Nelson has finally achieved her childhood dream. A recent Ph.D. graduate delighting in the chance to work for her hero, the twenty-five-year-old marine biologist is determined to solve why algae are destroying all life in and above the sea. But when a shooting incident in her new lab leaves one man dead, the unnerved woman fears something more sinister could be at play.

Joining her boss and three labmates on an expedition to track down the organism's origin, Diane struggles to know who to trust. But after she defies company orders and uncovers a shocking conspiracy, the na?ve researcher's future could depend on separating friend from foe...

Can she contain the source before her world turns bloodred?

Bleeding Sea is a slick and riveting eco-thriller. If you like complex characters, heart-wrenching drama, and thought-provoking themes, then you'll love K.A. Kirtland's powerfully dark tale.
