"Primordial" (2017) by David Wood and Alan Baxter is a monster tale that takes its time to flush out characters and build suspense. Heavily in debt scientist Sam Aston signs on to serve as a consultant to a small group of investigators searching for a carnivorous creature reputed to inhabit a large lake in Finland. The story delivers on excitement toward the last third. It took some time to acclimate to the narrator dropping his voice modulation at the end of every sentence. Still, solidly recommended.
