Publisher Description: The shipwreck made national news. On Tuesday June 7, 1960 the private vessel Marie left Santa Barbara Harbor at 7 a.m. in route to waters off Santa Cruz Island, but never returned. When the Marie vanished, her crew was conducting a covert underwater communications experiment for a Raytheon-related project. Among the Marie's seven crew, the author's father and an eminent physicist who had worked on the Manhattan Project. Four bodies were recovered; however, three including the author's father and the scientist were never found. Afterwards, Teresa and the other children left fatherless grew up and the full details of the shipwreck were buried.
