Description

It is August in Cairns, North Queensland, the tropical Winter and tourist season. Andrew Collins a 14 year old local lad and navy cadet has begun a SCUBA diving course, along with his older sister Carmen. Also on the course is Muriel who is the same age and also a navy cadet. Andrew has fallen in love with her and is very anxious to impress her, but lacks experience with girls. But on his very first dive in the open sea Andrew discovers that he is terrified; afraid of all the dangerous creates that inhabit the Coral Sea, and also scared of having to do training and tests such as removing his face mask under water. Pride battles with panic. Despising himself for being a coward who is too afraid to admit he is scared, Andrew keeps on trying. As he struggles with the challenges of diving Andrew also stumbles on an old family puzzle: What happened to his own grandfather, also a diver? Bert Collins was lost at sea many years before, but was he? Andrew and Carmen find themselves drawn into a deadly web of lies and danger as they try to find out the truth. Andrew finds himself confronted by the biggest challenges of his young life. At the same time as he struggles to keep his self respect, and while he agonizes over the ups and downs of his love life, he is also caught in a situation requiring him to make cruel choices which threaten to harm himself, his own family, and others that he loves. Before the truth is revealed Andrew has to battle with all his worst nightmares come true. Davy Joness Locker is an adventure to be enjoyed by anyone who was, or is, a Navy Cadet, or who likes stories about the sea. It is suitable for teenagers.
