With sweating hands, Alison Shaw stared nervously into the giant seawater tank. One year ago, she and her team of marine biologists had stunned the world with an incredible breakthrough. Now they were about to do it again. And this time, they were ready.
But an ocean away, something strange was unfolding. Along a lonely coast in South America, an experimental Russian submarine – long thought to have been dismantled – has suddenly resurfaced. And the US Navy has taken notice, sending John Clay and Steve Caesare to investigate.
They discover the sub has been quietly studying a group of soldiers making mysterious trips into the jungle under the cover of darkness. The group has discovered something…something big.
And what Clay and Caesare uncover next is the last thing anyone expects. The discovery of the century has been made…and someone is ready to fight for it.
AMAZING!!! Read Breakthrough first, and hope there’s a next one because I want more of Michael Grumley’s creativity. Leap, a sequel to Breakthrough, starts out with Alison, and her two dolphin prodigies, the lovable Sally and Dirk.

Outstanding, Michael Grumley is quickly moving to the front of the line of great story tellers! In Breakthrough, Allison Shaw and her team made a breakthrough discovery working with two very lovable dolphins, Sally and Dirk. In Leap, the team is in a new research facility in Puerto Rico. They make such a discovery that is better described as a leap in science and technology. This discovery will have them questioning what it means to be an animal and what it means to be a human. The world will never be the same after they’re discovery. However, not everyone will want to see it used…
