Publisher's summary

Inmate Kane Brooks escapes from prison while participating in a program to train as a commercial deep sea diver. When he assumes a new identity in Florida as an alligator wrangler removing nuisance animals from homes and businesses, it looks like he’s found a way to settle down and lay low. But that all changes when a casual backyard gladiator racket turns into an underground empire staging man-versus beast spectacles in a cage-fighting style ring.

After Fish & Wildlife officer Heather Winters is tipped off about the illegal activity and starts to investigate, she goes undercover, posing as a spectator at the matches in order to infiltrate the underground culture. But when Winters gets close to obtaining sufficient evidence to make an arrest, she learns the man staging the contests is not at all who he says he is. When Brooks catches on to her true role, Winters finds herself in the unenviable position of having to face off as a contestant in the ultimate fight card—woman vs. great white shark in…The Tank.

A rare book I couldn't finish - mild spoilers

I'm usually pretty generous in reviews. I love Rick Chesler's book "Hotel Megladon," and enjoyed "Sawfish" so much I listened a few times. But this one is awful. It's like a bad first draft with no character development whatsoever, so you don't care about the characters at all. Also, it flirts with animal abuse, which I have a hard time with. By the time they caught the panther, I wanted it to shred the idiots imprisoning it, and was rooting for it to take over.

No idea what happens at the end, I couldn't take it anymore. I am two hours from finishing, but I disliked the characters so much that the book was just starting to make me angry the last two times I tried to listen. I'd return it but I can't find the option.

Narration is meh. It's passable, but not inspired, just like a guy reading you a book. I can live with it though, and it was better than the content of the story.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
