Under water / Casey Barrett.
Duck Darley's lost glory days resurface when he's tasked with finding the teenaged sister of a former teammate turned Olympic champion. Duck thinks he's hunting for a self-destructive runaway - until Madeline's film student ex is savagely murdered, and the media spins her as the psycho who killed him. As Duck searches for Madeline, he's plunged back into the dark underbelly of Olympic swimming - a world rife with wild lies and terrible violence. And he soon learns that no matter how hard he tries to escape his past, demons still lurk beneath every surface.
