My least favorite of the Cooper Kids Adventure Series (purely personal), it nonetheless has an interesting story to tell. The main issue i have is, like the other books in the series, it is totally unconnected with the others. It is a particularly serious matter in this book, since the story revolves quite a bit around Dr. Cooper's reticence to talk about his late wife, and an attraction to the pretty red-haired widow Meaghan. Neither Katherine nor Meaghan is mentioned again, or Dr. Cooper's change in attitude towards the topic of his wife's death. Aside from that, "Trapped at the Bottom of the Sea" is another good addition to the Cooper Kids Adventure Series.
