About this listen

The author, Kevin Bachar, knows sharks, having filmed them for SHARK WEEK, National Geographic, and PBS NATURE. As an EMMY-award-winning Natural History documentary director, he’s found himself swimming with all shapes and sizes of sharks, including the great white. In his novel, THE CHANNEL, he takes his in-water knowledge of these extraordinary and frightening creatures and crafts a terrifying tale of survival.

THE CHANNEL


Pilot Nicole Ardus leaves Hawaii with a group of avian researchers in her small plane. Their destination is a tiny island in the middle of the South Pacific. When the plane’s engine sputters out she’s forced to ditch in a roiling sea. Battling tempest storms, thirst, and sharks, Nicole and the survivors make it to a small atoll.

Soon, supplies are gone, survivors resort to treachery, and Nicole’s only hope for survival is to swim to a nearby atoll that might have life-saving supplies. But a shark patrols the channel between the two small spits of land, not just any shark, but a massive tiger shark. Fifteen feet long and ready to devour anything that crosses its path.

Will Nicole make it across THE CHANNEL?
