A scuba diver who has been engulfed by an eighty-foot, sixty-ton sperm whale and has only one hour to escape before his oxygen runs out is the subject of the scientifically realistic thriller Whalefall.
Finding his father's bones in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Monastery Beach has become Jay Gardiner's foolish quest. Although Jay is aware of the slim chances, he believes that this is the only way he can get over the guilt he has felt since his father committed suicide the year before.
The dive starts off quite smoothly, but Jay is seriously endangered when a massive squid suddenly shows up. The situation is further exacerbated when a sperm whale that is searching for food shows up. Jay is abruptly pushed into the whale's mouth and into the first of its four stomachs by the squid's tentacles. He soon learns that he has one hour left to face his demons and get out of the whale's belly before his oxygen tanks run out.
