AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'After a terrifying nightmare in outer space, Walter Franklin needed to discover a reason for living. He found it in the ocean depths when strangers defied death to give life back to him. Freedom to roam above and below the great waters should have been enough for any man - but Franklin was haunted by the memory of an echo...an echo that could solve the oldest mystery of the sea...' (Source: back cover, Pan Books, 1970 edition)

Notes

  • Dedication: For Mike who led me to the sea
  • Author's note: '...For an account of Heron Island as it is today, sixty-five years before the opening of this story, I refer the readers to The Coast of Coral, and I hope that the University of Queensland will appreciate my slight extrapolation of its existing facilities.' (Source: Pan Books, 1970 edition)
