Beast

Beast is by Peter Benchley. Whip Darling is a fisherman who knows everything there is to know about the waters off Bermuda. He sees his business failing as fish disappear. Then people start disappearing. Is it the Bermuda Triangle? Is it a sea monster? Can Whip kill the beast or will he be its next meal? If you liked Jaws, you'll enjoy this novel. A fun read with enough real science to keep purists turning the pages.

Ratings: 11th grade - 9 out of 10 - P (profanity) - V (violence) - AC (mature thematic content).
