The Old Gringo And The Sea

A supernatural giant octopus is terrorizing the northern coast of Ecuador. Only one man can fight it: The Old Gringo. So an ecuadorian sailor asks for his help. This desperate request is the ignition of a close combat between the evil octopus and the elder adventurer.
The novel is a kind of fast paced action spin-off of the well known "The Old Man And The Sea" by Ernest Miller Hemingway, depicting a different main character, more yankee style.
