Mako Hooker may look like any other grizzled fishing-boat captain trawling the Bermuda Triangle--but he's much more. Hooker is in fact a retired government operative taking a break from his highly secret, highly lethal career. When local fishermen begin to fall prey to a monstrous sea creature the islanders dub "the eater", he investigates--with the help of his off-kilter circle of friends--and uncovers a sinister conspiracy that will resurrect Hooker's violent past, and pit his legendary (if a bit rusty) skills against a powerful adversary who's out to prove the old spy saying: You're not retired from the Company until you're dead.
