FINS

In Fins: A Novel of Relentless Satire, pirates catch sharks in a marine reserve, lop off their fins, and discard the sharks for dead. A series of puzzling, apparently related shark attacks follows, suggesting that sentient sharks are cooperating to exact more than revenge. The carnage escalates until a brilliant, beautiful, beleaguered forensic technician-risking probable death and certain dismemberment-discovers the secret behind the attacks, revealing much more than was bargained for.
