Jaws by Peter Benchley

Jaws by Peter Benchley

Immerse yourself in the terror of Peter Benchley's vintage thriller, Jaws. Released in 1974 and inspiring Spielberg's cinematic masterpiece, the book has sold over twenty million copies globally and remains a landmark in classic literary horror. It's never safe to go back in the water . . . A small Atlantic resort. The mutilated body of a young woman, or what is left of it, washes up on the long, white stretch of beach on the beach. It is merely a harbinger of the horror that is about to unfold, as a sun-drenched holiday turns into a nightmare. You'll never look at the sea the same way again. A summer of terror has begun.

Pick up Jaws before midnight, read the first five pages, and I guarantee you'll be putting it down breathless and stunned, as dawn is breaking the next day* Daily Express *
