Synopsis
Sam Taggart is a cynical, hard-drinking vet living in the tropical island of Makura, surrounded by beautiful beaches…and even more beautiful women. He’s a shark hunter: armed with a spear gun and nerves of steel, he puts his life on the line every day, tracking down the deadly creatures for resort chefs, whose hungry guests are willing to pay top dollar for shark meat.
Everything changes for Taggart when he meets Bob Jones, who offers him a cool two million bucks for fighting two sharks. The only catch? Taggart has to fight them in a swimming pool, on live TV. For a pro like Taggart, that’s no problem…until the island’s corrupt dictator and police chief get involved. After some last-minute changes to the schedule stack the deck against him, Taggart the predator is now the prey — and if he doesn’t watch out, he’s going to be fish food!
This new edition of the weird, wild, and thrilling cult classic from underground favorite Len Levinson — called a “trash genius” in Paperback Fanatic magazine — features an all-new afterword from the author. Back in print after 40 years, Shark Fighter lives again!
