Abstract:
Upon returning from a two week ocean research assignment, noted marine biologist Paul Rice and team are traumatized by a cunningly swift sea creature. This behemoth creature befuddles their senses and high tech instrumentation. Upon arrival at their home base (The Woodshole Marine Biology Research Center), Paul is quickly briefed on a very recent fishing catastrophe just two miles from Woodshole. Seven of the eight crew members of the vessel Neptune’s Spear are brutally killed by this massive, unknown creature and its four fledglings.
