In my goal of reading all of the Stoker winners (I'm a big horror fan), I dove into Dead in the Water hoping for a thrilling ride. Not so much. I couldn't bring myself to care deeply for the characters. They tended to do stupid things and to quickly pass off the mountains of weirdness around them. The author's segues were abrupt and hard to follow. The storyline was interesting since I haven't read a horror novel set at sea like this. But sadly fell short.
