Inspired by a true story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the New York Aquarium, a mako shark convulses and heaves a human torso into the water in front of horrified visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DEA agent Luke Roberts is handed a murder with nothing but a torso \u2014 and a single witness that cannot speak. Her name is Andromeda: a female shortfin mako, tagged and tracked across the open Atlantic by the remarkable and beautiful marine biologist Brigida Castello. Somewhere in the data the shark carried home lie the coordinates of a killing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To read them, Luke turns to Brigida, and an unlikely alliance forms \u2014 one that deepens with every mile Andromeda swims toward home. Together they follow her from the waters off Montauk into a world almost no one is permitted to see: the real high seas, where sharks are butchered at a rate of one hundred million a year. The further they go, the clearer it becomes that the case the authorities call unsolvable was never about a monster in the water. It was about the men who rule it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Grounded in William McKeever\u2019s years of research \u2014 interviews with marine biologists, federal agents, and conservationists, and firsthand encounters with sharks in the open ocean \u2014 Return of the Mako<\/em><\/strong> takes Jaws<\/em> and turns it upside down. Fifty years after a great white taught the world to fear sharks, here at last is the novel that hands the story back to the mako: the fastest, the most beautiful, and the most intelligent shark in the sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And you will understand, at last, which predator the ocean should truly fear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
