About this listen

SOMETHING IS LURKING IN THE WATER... On the small island of Kalou, Fiji, a rash of disappearances has the local police stumped. Men, women and children seem to disappear without a trace. Mark Whittaker is the island's sole private investigator. A former LAPD detective who moved to the island to get away from the violence of the city, he's now thrust into the middle of the disappearances when he's hired to find the brother of a mysterious client. As Mark digs into the disappearances, he discovers that something sinister and ancient has been awakened on the island. Something that kills without pity or remorse. And he fears his once island dream is about to be turned into a nightmare. Genre Fiction Horror Sea Adventures Adventure Scary Fiction Detective

Rather traditional monster story. The author did a good job keeping me interested. The AI narrator is a bit dry but tolerable.

Good book if you like monster stories.

Overall I did enjoy this story however it is a real slow burn. Also at times I forgot this was a creature feature and thought it was more of a Noir evil oil company kind of story. Although the parts that feature the Titanoboa were good and made me feel at home with the creature feature side of things. I would only recommend this one if you really like more mystery and conspiracy thriller in your creature feature. I did actually surprisingly like the AI voice however it still does not come close to a real narrator.

I can't get in to the AI narrating. it is really slow.. May be a good story line but I just couldn't get past the AI

I couldn't finish it. really SLOW..

I was extremely skeptical towards the idea of an AI narrator, but, I listen to things at a 1.6x speed, so that coupled with a matching soundscape (underwater and jungle when appropriate) made it bearable. There were definitely times when the inflections didn't match what was being said and that did throw things off a little.

The story itself was pretty good, though, I liked the touches into native aspects and touching on the history of snakes as a whole. You don't get a ton of interactions with the beasties until later in the book but, still, a fairly solid creature feature.

A better story than I was expecting, although almost all on land as opposed to Sea horror.

This book started a little slow but really picked up. The AI narration wasn’t my favorite but didn’t detract from the story. Highly recommend.

It was a pretty good story though the reason I docked a star off was the author obviously knew nothing about Titanoboa nor of snakes in general. It would pay for him to research his subject before putting pen to paper. Some of the fault should be on the publishers as well, for not catching these errors.

This was a real thrill. I liked the narration. The only part i wasn't crazy about was the ending. it got sort of out there and I don't see how they would actually be killed. But play along. it's really worthy of a read or listen. a lot of fun

The story was okay… Exactly what I expected from a title like this. However, the computer generated voice ruined my ability to enjoy the story. The lack of inflection and mispronounced words took away from any chance of me enjoying this story.

The narration ruined what little hope the story had

interesting that this was computer narrated. The narrator sounded like a regular guy. Good creature book.
