'Puts some of the balls back into serious English fiction' GILES COREN THE TIMES 'Whisky-soaked guttural stinking and funny' EVIE WYLD OBSERVER 'Thrilling brutal poetic literary and irresistible one of the 21st century's first great 20th-century American novels' LOUISA YOUNG Before there was Jaws there was... QUINT You already know the end of his story: now find out where it all began. Quint : the taciturn and grizzled sea captain who survived the shark-ridden sinking of the USS Indianapolis only to meet his maker in the maw of a Great White at the end of JAWS . So much more than a fisherman - a survivor a fighter a man who has left three wives in his wake. In this vivid and utterly compelling masterpiece Robert Lautner reimagines the life of a truly iconic character. 'Excellent... a profound portrait of a life dislocated by war and violence' THE TIMES Best Summer Reads 'If Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea was doused in whiskey and strained through the gills of a tiger shark it would not sound dissimilar... one of this year's literary miracles' IRISH INDEPENDENT
