About this listen
Loch Ness holds secrets, ancient and deadly. Does a monster inhabit its depths, or is it just myth? Why, after thousands of reported sightings and dozens of expeditions, is there still no hard evidence?
Marine biologist Zachary Wallace knows, but the shock of his near-drowning as a child on Loch Ness have buried all memories of the incident. Now, a near-death experience suffered while on expedition in the Sargasso Sea has caused these long-forgotten memories to resurface. Haunted by vivid night terrors, stricken by a sudden fear of the water, Zach finds he can no longer function as a scientist.
Unable to cope, his career all but over, he stumbles down a path of self-destruction...until he receives contact from his estranged father, a man he has not seen since his parents divorced and he left Scotland as a boy.
Angus Wallace, a wily Highlander who never worked an honest day in his life, is on trial for murdering his business partner. Only Zachary can prove his innocence, if he is innocent, but to do so means confronting the nightmare that nearly killed him 17 years earlier.
Incorporating the latest research and "new evidence", that leads to real answers concerning the monster's identity, best-selling author Steve Alten weaves a tale of horror about the most publicized and controversial creature ever to exist.

Good listen
Only drawback was it made me miss being in the Highlands.
Narration was very good and the description of Drumnadrochit and surrounds was spot on.

Terrible accent
Having an American trying to get to grips with a Scottish accent was a very bad idea. At times I thought that even though the story was good, I wouldn’t finish it because of the butchering of the accent

The Loch
Great story, loved all the twists and turns. The narrator did a great job with a range of accents. The story was also very suspensive and scary at times. Also loved the atmospheric descriptions of Loch Ness.

possibly written by the monster
The story is passable but the characters are like how someone who has never met a human in real life would write humans. avoid this title
