Mockup of Akosua's forthcoming science fiction thriller, Monmouth Deep (paperback version).

Take A Journey Down into the Unknown…

Bad leadership and oaths of silence are a dangerous combination. 

When she receives a mysterious invitation to work as an intern at the secretive Monmouth Project, twenty-one-year-old NICOLA SPENCER feels sure that their claim—that the facility is headquartered in a deep-sea military base—must be a hoax. 

Little does she know the advanced human colony down there—and the alien-inspired fleet they’ve built—could be on the cusp of unleashing a dark agenda upon Planet Earth.

What’s the real agenda of the above-top-secret black project that has run amok, progressing without oversight for thirty-five years?

Who are the Sentinels?

Will a paralyzed White House even take action when informed about the impending disaster?

Most importantly, should Nicola try to expose the truth or save her own skin?

About Akosua

Akosua is a recovering acrylic artist whose curiosity about space and love for futuristic science fiction prompted an interest in “reverse-engineering the future,” working backwards from a future in which humans and extraterrestrials share a fractious cosmos, to imagine how these radical shifts might originate in the present day.

She has also begun to suspect that her family members are really telepathic ETs in disguise, although unlike her protagonist, she hasn’t tried phasing through solid walls just yet.
