A Tower Below The SeaA Tower Below The Sea by Karsten Krepinsky
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Offshore Oil Rigs have a rather bad rep with the public, mostly for spills and other environmental factors. But on one oil Rig, there is something much more sinister waiting than a simple spill. Six employees of Global companion have won an all expense paid vacation are on their way to the yacht when a sudden storm forces the pilot to seek the first safe harbor he can. This possible not so safe shelter turns out to be an oil rig that seems to be deserted and other than the pools of blood throughout, there are no signs of life. The group are spooked and when one person is murdered, they are suddenly all fighting for their lives before they too are next.
A suspenseful thriller and murderous story are the spine of this book. I am German, so I understand the German mindset in how stories flow and was easily able to follow along. The story is well done. The only issue I had is the main characters portrayal, she was not likeable, and even with the trauma in her past, the vast majority of women would not act the way she did. (Speaking as a woman, and as a multiple trauma survivor).
