He quickly comes to realize this was a mistake, maybe a deadly one. Davey gets caught in a rip tide and pulled out to sea. No one knows where he is. They don't even know he left the hotel room.
When the family discovers Davey missing, they aren't too worried at first. After all, he likes to go off to read alone. But their concern turns to worry and then panic as the hours pass and Davey is clearly not on the small island.
When Davey is already exhausted from spending hours in the sun, he sees the first one. A blue shark is swimming in slow lazy circles around him. That's when he really begins to panic.
In alternating chapters, Michael Northrop tells Davey's story and the story of his family and the people trying to find him. This book definitely lives up to its name and was much more intense than I was expecting! The last several pages flew by as I hurried to discover Davey's fate. Recommended for adventure/survival fans and shark fans!
