Lev Prakenskii geht in den Wellen verloren, wird immer tiefer in das Nichts hinein gesogen dies ist das letzte, an das er sich erinnert, nachdem ihn unverhofft eine schöne Fremde an das sichere Ufer zieht. Lev weiß nicht mehr, wer er ist, oder warum er diesen brutalen Instinkt eines ausgebildeten Killers besitzt. Alles, was er weiß, ist, dass er um sein Leben fürchten muss.
For Lev Prakenskii, the last thing he remembers is being lost in the swirling currents of the ocean and sucked deeper into the nothingness of a freezing black eddy off the coastal town of Sea Haven. Just as quickly, just as miraculously, he was saved - pulled ashore by a beautiful stranger - but Lev has no memory of who he was - or why he seems to possess the violent instincts of a trained killer. All he knows is that he fears for his life, and the life of his unexpected saviour.
Her name is Rikki, a sea-urchin diver in the small town of Sea Haven. She always felt an affinity for the ocean and the seductive pull of the tides - and now, for the enigmatic man she rescued. But soon they will be bound by something even stronger - each other's tantalising secrets that will engulf them both in a whirlpool of dizzying passion and inescapable danger.
