Deep Water was shortlisted for the QLD Premier's Literary Award.

Through a blend of history, science, nature writing, and environmentalism, Deep Water invites you to explore the deepest recesses of our natural world.

'Teeming with mysteries, wonders and heartbreaking facts, this beautiful, lucid hymn to the sea is a reminder of what we still have, what we stand to lose, and why we must never stop fighting to save our home.'
- Tim Winton

The ocean has shaped and sustained life on Earth from the beginning of time. Its vast waters are alive with meaning and connect every living thing on Earth.

Deep Water is a hymn to the beauty, mystery, and wonder of the ocean. Weaving together science, history, and personal experience, it offers vital new ways of understanding not just humanity's relationship with the planet, but our past—and perhaps most importantly, our future.
