Summary

A series of violent shark attacks off the shores of northern California draw the attention of pessimistic Detective Luke Jansen. Despite reports of shark sightings by witnesses, the injuries appear to be more reminiscent of a chainsaw-wielding maniac rather than shark bites.

Things get stranger when marine biologist Elise Sheldon encounters the creature. Exhausted and traumatized, she is quickly dismissed, after she makes the claim that the beast is a Helicoprion. Thought to be extinct, the creature wields a spiraling set of teeth that can dice anything caught in its path. Unable to convince anyone of its existence, Elise turns to Detective Jansen for assistance.

With little help from the police department, Luke and Elise form an unlikely alliance to uncover the truth. Their investigation puts them face-to-face with a violent man-eating shark, and the terrifying reason for its existence.

Sharks & pandemics

What’s not to love. It’s everything you want from a sci-fi action book. It’s long but once you start you won’t want it to end.

Good storyline

an enjoyable story to get lost in. you can leave and pick up at your leisure. likable characters although not enough regarding the shark itself, still a good twist on the man v evil arc.

Great book, poor narration

A great book let down by mediocre narration and an inability to do a British accent. For a character who's meant to be from South London, they sounded more Australian and the rest of the accents aren't much better.

Don't let that put you off, it's another superb book by Mr Cole.

Never going into the sea again…

Expected it to be the usual rehashed ‘Jaws’ so was considerably surprised in the first hour. Thoroughly enjoyable, a couldn’t put it down read (listen).

I highly recommend you take a chance ce on this book if you're sat on the fence. It's a great yarn, well paced and full of plenty of action. Narration is great too. Great story, well worth a credit.

Loved this

Loved the story. This is a superior 'sea beast' tale of a decent length. Starts 'Jaws-like' and becomes something else. I enjoyed the narration (including dodgy accents). A highly recommended listen.

Excellent adventure. Great suspense story

Hope there is more from these characters. Superb great story. A little Jurassic but stands alone with the story line

Gripping

l liked this, narration was good (apart from the attempt at an English accent). Sloppy science though, the author should know basic stuff like antibiotics are no good against a virus and that viruses do not lurk in DNA. Other than that, it's an enjoyable bit of escapism
