Lots of kids dream of being on TV—but for Liam it’s a NIGHTMARE
Alone in a giant water tank, Liam, holding a camera, watches as a twenty-foot-long hammerhead shark is about to be lowered in with him. This is not where he thought his day was going.
Liam is helping his mom film a documentary for the Danger Channel.
A twelve-year-old battling a shark! It’ll be a sensation!
But don’t worry, the hammerhead is the gentlest of sharks.
And this one is old and nearly toothless, so Liam will be fine.
But Liam is paralyzed with fear. And as the shark is lowered into the tank, he realizes something’s not right … !
Customer Reviews
Not scary, just cruel
YA books generally show a character gaining perspective on the world they’re about to enter, and the ridding of old notions or beliefs- generally through the challenges they face. Not this one.
By the end of the book, I disliked every single character, and was triggered by the actions of the adults. I am actually upset over this story and the memories it brought up.
It moved fairly well as a paced plot, but that’s about the only positive.
