At 10.42 AM on 22 October 2003, while diving around the SS Yongala shipwreck site on the Great Barrier Reef, a diver took what he thought was just one of many underwater photos. But that picture was to tell a desperate story. In the lower right-hand corner of the shot, Tina Watson's lifeless body lies 25 metres down on the ocean floor, her arms outstretched, reaching upwards. This is the photograph which shocked millions across Australia and the US.
How could this young woman have died, a mere seven minutes into her dive, when Gabe Watson, her diving buddy and husband of only eleven days, was a certified rescue diver? How could such an experienced diver have panicked and abandoned his new wife to her fate, as he later told police? As the tragedy unfolded and witnesses came forward, disturbing evidence mounted that something more sinister might have occurred. Could Gabe Watson have murdered Tina?
This is the captivating mystery at the heart of this true-life thriller, as Lindsay Simpson and Jennifer Cooke cover two continents to discover the real story.

Regardless of the Courts findings, this book dealt with many of the goings on that were never brought to light in the court system, an interesting if not terrifying event.

I guess that means, based on the other reviews, that no one should ever write anything! How ridiculous. Someone great once said "I disagree with what you say, but I will defend forever your right to say it". Enough said.

I can not believe this author would write a book without the consent of this young girls family members. I have followed this case closely and have seen them go through so much for so long already, and then to have this person come out of no where and do this just to profit from their loved one's murder is beyond words. Everyone involved in this book should be ashamed of themselves.
