MEG[ALODON]: Hell's Aquarium

     This is the sequel to The Trench which I wrote about in my last book and it's even better!  I don't want to give anything away, but the daughter of the original megalodon was captured and is now being held in a massive aquarium while being held for viewing along with her own three daughters if you pay for a ticket.  The act starts out normal enough but there is a terrifying accident that leads to the closing down of the aquarium and possible euthanization of the meg.  However, it is agreed upon that the meg will be transported back to the Marianas trench where it came from.  Meanwhile the main character's son takes a job with a private corporation in India where he will be teaching a group of people how to use the divers which his father used the first time they met the prehistoric shark.  The man behind the business is very mysterious with a past that he will not tell anybody.  The son, naturally suspicious, investigates the compound which they are on and finds that there are massive empty tanks filled with water along with one which holds a massive surprise.  The whole book is filled with many unexpected curve balls which will make the inner child inside you giddy due to its fascination that there may be something else out there which has not yet been discovered.  The book also has a completely unexpected ending which was meant for shock and awe along with a mix of sadness that makes you want to tell somebody about it just so you can say "wow."  Because that is all that will be going through your mind at the time.
