Jamie Edmondson is friends with nearly everybody, as long as they don't disagree with his strident views on the environment. When he leads an expedition to the discovery of a new race of humans who live under the sea, things change. That's when he meets some really bad people who don't like humans that aren't human. A present-day epic adventure that takes place on the California coast. We call them Neptunes, and this race of telepaths threatens everything we humans stand for. When Jamie falls for a beautiful young Neptune, he discovers that when you're underwater, no one can count your tears.
