Synopsis

The oceans cover 71% of the Earth's surface and less than 10% has been explored. Sea life long thought extinct could still be out there, just waiting to be rediscovered. . The Aquatic Research City (The ARC) had been hailed as a futuristic goldmine for scientific research and a facility adept enough to discover all there is to know about the world's oceans. The Brainchild of the project, ruthless Billionaire James Maxwell-Baxter Senior, calls for drastic measures as unforeseen financial restrictions halt its construction amid the final steps of assembly. To aide funding, a special congregation of public figures including the Governor of California are invited onboard the island-sized floating city for a one off tour. During the inaugural visit an unstoppable wave of devastation is set free in the shape of a captive monster sized shark of unknown origin. The shark heads out to the open ocean and Paleontologist Morgan Read, alongside the crew of the vessel Wakinyan, heads off on a non-stop edge of your seat thrill ride as they attempt to put a halt to the shark's terrifying rise up the food chain.
