A jaded detective encounters a rare predator after a series of incidents unravel in a small coastal town.

SYNOPSIS:

Detective Ken Faas is a man on the edge, battling a painkiller addiction and a deteriorating relationship with his daughter. When a local councilman’s teenager goes missing, Faas is reluctantly drawn into the case. His initial assumptions point to a simple drowning, but a series of brutal shark attacks, including one that claims a woman's dog in the very river the teenager disappeared from, begin to paint a far more terrifying picture.

As Faas grapples with his personal demons and the skepticism of his boss and colleagues, he uncovers a shocking truth: a massive great white shark has made its way into the river channel. But it isn't just a random act of nature; this shark, a seasoned predator, is hunting. Forced to confront this unprecedented threat, Faas must team up with a trusted marine deputy and a hostile tactical sergeant in an attempt to confirm the presence of the impossible predator. What begins as a grudging investigation spirals into a desperate fight for survival aboard a small patrol boat, trapped on the river with a creature far larger, smarter, and more aggressive than they could ever imagine.

APEX is a visceral thriller pitting a broken man against a force of nature, defying all expectations. It's a story of survival, unexpected terror in familiar waters, and one detective's harrowing last chance at confronting both the monster in the river and the demons within himself.
