Synopsis

IT LURKS
Deep beneath the ice of the Arctic Circle, something has awakened. A primordial creature frozen in time, it is the oldest, largest, most efficient predator that nature has ever produced. And it is ravenously hungry…

IT HUNTS
Thirty-five miles off the Massachussetts coast, a small research ship is attacked. All but one of its crew is killed by the massive serpentine horror that rises from the sea. The creature likes this human prey. The chewy outer hide. The tender saltiness within. And it wants more…

IT FEEDS
Responding to a distress signal, fishing-boat captain Brian Hawkins arrives in time to save the ship's last survivor. But the nightmare is just beginning. A casino cruise ship carrying high-stakes passengers—and a top-secret cargo—becomes the creature's bloodsoaked hunting ground. Desperate but determined, Hawkins goes after the biggest catch of the century.

I saw the cover, a massive maw rising from the water to close upon a cruise ship, and thought, "Ooooh, this is going to be SCARY!" To its......more

Simply Brilliant. You can tell straight away that this Author has a talent for writing. This was such an easy book to read, and was so well written. However after reading this I will probably never go in the water again. as soon as I read the opening to this book I was hooked. it's hard to imagine a......more

Goodreads review by Alan on September 30, 2020

This book had such promise as at least an exciting creature feature, but unfortunately the more it went on, the more ridiculous the story became to the point of it being just a waste of time. Starting off somewhat like a cross between the movie Deep Rising and one of Steve Alten's water monster book......more
