Title: Bermuda Triangle Story from Hell
Review: Tim Curran knows how to scare you and get under your skin. Dead Sea is a great example of his work. Like many of his novels he spends a great deal of time describing things like the fog and the sea. I believe this is one of his strengths because you truly feel the horror of the details. However it can become excessive at times. He comes up with some very original nasty creatures out of your worst nightmare. I particulary enjoyed the spider/ghost woman haunting one of the ships. Overall a very enjoyable novel about a group of hapless sailors trapped in the Curran version of the Bermuda Triangle. They struggle against the many natural and supernatural horrors of "Dead Sea" as well as themselves. He is not afraid to kill off main characters which may be upsetting to some. A good read on a dark/rainy night.
