Caden Bosch lives in two worlds. One is his real life with his family, his frie
nds, and high school. There he is paranoid for no reason, thinks people are tryi
ng to kill him, and demonstrates obsessive compulsive behaviors. In his other wo
rld, he's part of the crew for a pirate captain on a voyage to the Challenger De
ep, the ocean's deepest trench. There he's paranoid, wary of the mercurial capta
in and his mutinous parrot, and tries hard to interpret the mutterings of his fe
llow shipmates as they sail uncharted waters toward unknown dangers. Slowly, Cad
en's fantasy and paranoia begin to take over, until his parents have only one ch
oice left.
