Whitt has no memory of who he is, his past is a void and he can barely hang on to the present. All that Whitt knows is that when he sleeps the nightmares wait for him. He dreams of a town underwater, lifeless floating people, and an eerie lighthouse that seems to call out to him like whale song. 

After receiving an anonymous note Whitt joins a crew of crabbers on the ship Sonia. The crew, like Whitt, are plagued by nightmares and the Captain seems to be on a mission all his own. Are these dreams a shared madness by a crew too long at sea or are they collectively haunted by a supernatural force swimming in the depths of the sea and their minds.

A Dark And Endless Sea began slowly but when it picked up the pace the mystery of Whitt, the crew, and the Captain took a nosedive into pure horror. I appreciated the references to classic literature and poetry - Shakespeare, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, a brief nod to Moby Dick - all playing into the novel. The Rime was used frequently and the imagery played well into the horror of this piece. 

This was an enjoyable read and I look forward to its physical release date on June 7th. Thank you to NetGalley, the publisher Wicked House Publishing, and the author Blaine Daigle for allowing me to read an ARC of this novel.
