At first, it was hailed as a miracle of science.

In reality, it was a catastrophic mistake.

Dr. Elliot Alere never imagined his greatest achievement would become his greatest regret. Driven by ambition and the promise of medical breakthroughs, he accomplished the impossible: resurrecting an extinct marine predator—the cameroceras.

He believed the ancient cephalopod could unlock new frontiers in science.

Instead, he unleashed a monster.

When the creature escapes mid-transport, it vanishes into the waters surrounding Green Pastures, a quiet island off the West Coast. Over forty feet long, armed with ten muscular arms tipped with razor-sharp talons, and protected by a massive, cone-shaped shell, the beast wastes no time racking up a body count.

Haunted by guilt, Alere persuades his employer to mount a high-risk operation to recapture the creature. He joins forces with an idealistic marine biologist, a washed-up crab boat captain, and a group of ruthless trophy hunters.

The hunt proves to be the last for many involved, for nothing is safe from the creature’s mighty arms and the pointed tip of its immense CONE.
