Kate is a shark expert whose business has been failing since a shark attack killed a fellow diver under her command. Once dubbed 'the shark whisperer,' Kate is haunted by the memory of the attack and unable to get back into the water.

Battling her self-doubts and fear, Kate accepts the proposal and sets a course for the world's deadliest feeding ground - Shark Alley.
