Jaws

We were living in Fort Lauderdale when Jaws came out in 1975. But we watched it in West Chester with some old friends when we came up for a vacation that summer.

By the time we returned to Florida everybody was talking about the movie and bathers had their heads on swivels when they waded into the surf. Many were apprehensive for a long time.

The story is about a great white killer shark that unleashes chaos on a beach community in Long Island, and it then falls upon a local sheriff, a marine biologist, and an old seafarer to hunt the beast down.

That great white is near the top of my list of Movie Villains.

I’m America’s Best Crime Writer – Barry Bowe – & I approve this message.

My first book – Born to Be Wild – was published in 1992 and is still selling on Amazon & Kindle. it’s a true story about certain members of the Warlocks motorcycle gang.

The story took 21 years to play out with many twists & turns. It’s an amalgam of Sons of Anarchy and Breaking Bad – but these outlaw bikers make the Sons look like Cub Scouts.
