Navy SEAL Carlos Garcia volunteers for excruciating surgical and genetic modifications that will allow him to survive five hundred feet underwater. In return for his transformation, Aro Corp. rewards Garcia handsomely—enough to pay his debt and support his wife and children. They expect him to work alone for two years in the ocean’s depths…but as Garcia confronts his new life, he realizes it may pull him away from everything that made him human… Pressure was previously published in the short story collection Long Eyes and Other Stories.
