The Cave - Dan Frolec

Do you know why we ask questions about Michael’s death?  Do you know that he was stabbed with a knife?  Did you know it was murder?   It was 2002. My friends and I embarked on what should have been a fantastic sailing and scuba diving adventure along the Croatian coast. We discovered an underwater cave and went exploring. Through a cruel twist of fate, a mix of coincidence, a mistake, and bad luck, one of us vanished into the darkness. We searched for him, without any success. The following day, the authorities deployed two navy divers who seemed not to have been in any cave before to find our friend. One diver never came back.   Two days later, the nightmare intensified. One of my friends and I were accused of murder and thrown into custody. Croatian police needed someone to blame. They claimed they had found our deceased friend with his diving knife buried in his chest.  Could they manufacture the evidence to sentence us?  Our fight for freedom started.Â
