December 1984. SIS field asset Heidi Sperling [codename Thistle] exfiltrates from East Berlin with the sole copy of a critical intelligence leak: a naval log containing a solitary message received from a previously unidentified Soviet submarine.

Incredulously – impossibly – it seems the vessel, known only as TK-15, has been sitting motionless and undetected in the waters between Scotland and Iceland for three whole years. And now this latest message reads: ACTIVE.

Picked up by the Royal Navy’s submarine HMS Viking, Heidi is thrust into a 'black ops' mission: find TK15 and neutralise it at any cost. But as her only ally on board the Viking falls sick, she realises this modified vessel is far more than a Soviet experiment to gain an upper hand in the nuclear arms race. Here, in the crushing depths of the North Atlantic, it seems something darker has awoken - something that cannot be contained by any superpower.

As Heidi’s own reality twists around her, an unknowable force cripples the Viking's defences and drives its crew to madness. Trapped in the deep, Heidi has no choice but to find a way to save the remaining crew and stop TK-15 for good, before it steals what’s left of her mind . . .

Kritikerstimmen

Combines a cold war spy novel with lurking horrors beneath the sea . . . a creepy, disorientating journey into fear. (Lisa Tuttle)
If Philip K Dick and Stephen King had a lovechild at the height of Cold War tensions, it would look something like this. (NICHOLAS BINGE, author of Ascension)
Claustrophobia-inducing . . . Atomic Coffin feels like an underwater version of Event Horizon, with a little bit of Solaris mixed in . . . a sunken treasure chest of delights.
Awash with crushing terror and claustrophobia, and the dread of physical and psychological isolation, Atomic Coffin is an excellent high-pressure tale of cosmic horror. (TIM LEBBON, author of Secret Lives of The Dead)
This is a cracker! Creepy, claustrophobic and laced with dread, Atomic Coffin is a first-rate horror novel! (GARETH BROWN, author of The Book of Doors)
A tense and claustrophobic horror novel that drips with atmosphere, tension and threat, Atomic Coffin is a Cold War fever dream of spies, submarines and intense, hull-cracking dread . . . a visceral and deeply menacing debut. (DAVID GOODMAN, author of A Reluctant Spy)
With a relentless, eerie rhythm that loops and builds to an otherworldly crescendo, Atomic Coffin is an unfathomably spooky deep-sea horror. (MK HARDY, author of The Needfire)
The Shining. In a nuclear submarine. On the edge of the continental shelf at the height of the Cold War, with occasional reference to cats. You can’t make this shit up. Fortunately, Benedict Anning can. And he does a damn good job of it.
