Many years ago, on a top-secret scientific exploratory dive into the Pacific Ocean's deepest canyon, Jonas Taylor found himself face-to-face with an ancient monster too horrifying for his modern mind to contemplate. He was the sole survivor of the creature's wrath that day --- lift with the almost unimaginable belief that the attacker was a real Meg --- the prehistoric Carcharodon Megalodon. All the experts sneered at the thought of Meg, but she is indeed all too real. Now something has stirred her from the ocean depths. That ancient creature is rising, hurtling toward the surface in a deadly fury, ready to churn the tides of terror. This to be more accurate adaptation of Steve Alten's novel.
