Luke is brand-new to Florida from the Midwest; sisters Maribel and Sabina have only recently arrived from Cuba-and all three feel like fish out of water. It's going to take some convincing for them to work as a team and to recognize in themselves the courage, wisdom and tenacity that Doc sees in them.Together they form Sharks, Inc. and are given an important assignment: to set out each day on their small fishing boat in hopes of tagging sharks for Doc's research-and to stay away-far away-from any possible poachers in the area.
