Fragment

Now here's a story that's seemingly modeled after some of Michael Crichton's fast tales. The Trident is a large ship chartered with carrying an attractive crew being filmed for a reality TV show called SeaLife. In a remote section of the Southern Pacific Ocean they come across tiny Henders Island. Soon after a landing party manages to gain access to the island, most of them end up being eaten by beasties never before seen on Earth. Good start! And then half-way in, things pick up and the pages fly by. I think some other blurb said it first, but Fragment is like a combination of The Ruins and Jurassic Park. A fast, diverting story with really nasty fauna.
