Deep Blue Sea
Thriller. Susan McAlester, a marine biologist, is in the midst of research on a possible connection between a cure for Alzheimer's disease and protein extracted from killer sharks. She is visited at her base, a giant converted underwater tank formerly used by the US Navy, by Russell Franklin, a tycoon who has ploughed money into the research and who wishes to see just exactly what his money is being used for. In the middle of strategic tests the killer sharks, whose intelligence have been greatly increased by the experiments, suddenly break loose with disastrous results.
