AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Sharks in a supermarket! In a sleepy coastal resort community, shoppers at an underground supermarket find themselves terrorised by a crazed killer when the unimaginable occurs - a freak tsunami swallows the town. But the tidal wave has also delivered some unwanted visitors from the depths, and as the waters rise they must overcome not only the threat of drowning and the human menace within their midst - but a pack of hungry sharks.'
