Mark Douglas

    Cet auteur a introduit un nouveau type d'enquêteur dans la fiction policière : l'océanographe Cal McGill, qui traque les objets dérivants, y compris les corps. Son œuvre est saluée pour son atmosphère évocatrice et sa représentation unique des profondeurs de l'océan comme décor de mystère et de découverte. Les récits de l'auteur explorent la relation complexe entre l'humanité et le monde marin, sondant les profondeurs de la psychologie humaine autant que les eaux inexplorées.
