Steve Yeager has penned an entertaining thriller that keeps the reader engaged and sometimes enraged with the lies and powerful people putting money & influence ahead of the lives of the unsuspecting public. Anytime a group of unsuspecting people stumble across a huge fearless animal with a wide gaping mouth full of sharp teeth and crushing jaw power, not to mention their stealthy sneak attack nature - it is a disaster getting ready to happen. This is my first novel featuring Gators, but I have enjoyed some well made suspenseful / horror movies with the monster being an Alligator or a Crocodile. They continue to reap havoc wherever they live whether it be Australia, Africa, or America. They are every bit as dangerous as their ancestors.
To me an Alligator or Crocodile are the dinosaurs that survived. I love well made disaster movies and well made dinosaur movies. Though I thought it fitting that during this Shark Week when commentators often made reference to or comparison between sharks & alligators and in light of the book's cover.that the title is very fitting. First of all this book in no way compares in greatest nor is it about a shark. But out of respect for that great bestselling novel, hair raising soundtrack, and Academy Award winning movie I deliberately used small letters.
I can't think of a more apropos title, than the iconic one used by Peter Benchley.
