About Deep Waters: Marine biologist Beth Mathews’s adventurous life as a professor and mother in Alaska is upended when her husband is slammed by a rare type of stroke. His radical approach to recovery includes demands for ambitious sailing expeditions with Beth and their young son on Alaska's magnificent, yet unforgiving Gulf of Alaska. Beth's instincts tell her to keep him home and the family safe. How Beth navigates these divergent views will keep you turning the pages right to the end.
