Quint
Uncannily brilliant�_� a book to be swallowed whole' EVIE WYLD Before there was Jaws, there was�_� QUINT Fifteen years since I landed on Amity, an island full of rich folks adrift between the Hamptons and Montauk. Got a business and a boat, got me a truck with my name and a pretty shark scratched on the door. Carved it myself. Bad job. I got ghosts around me, lot of ghosts. Gotta put �_~em somewhere. Can�_Tt drink �_~em all. Ain�_Tt here for company, and I only got two stories for telling company anyways. Thinking if I get them stories down, on paper mind, then that�_Ts just between me and the ink. You already know the end of his story: now find out where it all began. So much more than a fisherman, Quint is a survivor, a fighter, a man who has left three wives in his wake. From his time as a young sailor facing the horrors of the sinking of the USS Indianapolis, to a deadly night-long showdown with a frenzy of sharks years later, before he finally settles on the island of Amity: this extraordinary act of literary ventriloquism is a vivid and utterly compelling reimagining of the life of a truly iconic character �_" from the acclaimed author of THE DRAUGHTSMAN and THE ROAD TO RECKONING.
