Description

"The shape had stopped behind the curtain of water. A vague, shadowy shape-part human, part lizard. A huge arm reached forward, and a single claw penetrated the waterfall and pointed, glistening, at the children." Deep in a remote jungle in Mexico, something unearthly is stirring, disturbed by a party of zoologists. Ben and Claire Swift, who are there with their father, are the only ones who realize the incredible danger that threatens them all. An edge-of-the-seat thriller, lightened by the realistic, often very funny exchanges of its young hero and heroine.
