A thrilling survival story from Michael Northrop, the acclaimed author of Trapped.
He couldn't sleep. That's how it all started.
When Davey wakes, just as the sun is rising, he can't wait to slip out of the crammed hotel room he's sharing with his family. Leave it to his parents and kid brother to waste an entire day of vacation sleeping in! Davey heads straight for the beach, book and glasses in hand, not bothering to leave a note. As the sparkling ocean entices him, he decides to test the water, never mind that "No Swimming" sign. But as the waves pull him farther from shore, Davey finds himself surrounded by water -- and something else, too. Something circling below the surface, watching, waiting. It's just a matter of time.

I really like this book. It is about a boy named Davey and Davey is a nice person who likes to read. His family is at Aszure Island on vacation. He wakes up with nothing to do and decides to go outside with out letting anybody know. He decides to wade in the ocean but gets caught in a rip current and goes a little to far! Davey has had swimming lessons and has been swimming with his brother. When he is out in the open he is blazed by sun and is lonely. He finds out too late that he isn't the only one out there. He is soon joined by a Tiger Shark and some Blacktips. WHAT WILL HAPPEN??????
