Dr. Emma Collins continues the work of her deceased father on climate change and the protection of great white sharks on an artificial island, flooded by rising sea levels, near South Africa named Little Happy. Her team includes Spinnaker (nicknamed “Spinn”), Miya, and Eugene Shaw, Emma’s father’s best friend and brother figure. Also living on Little Happy are Emma’s friends Nandi and her brother Bahari. Bella, a bull shark who was responsible for the chaos in the past years, is found dead, having been killed after getting stuck in fishing lines, discovered by Dr. Richard Lowell and his team on their boat, the Thasos.
They go to Little Happy to find the three last pups of Bella are now adults, and are the only survivors from the litter.
Richard is revealed to be Emma’s ex-boyfriend. When Richard and his team dive to chase the bull sharks, Emma goes with them and discovers three great white sharks devoured by the bull sharks. Soon after, Brown (a member of Richard’s team) is found dead, having been sliced in half by the bull sharks, which are theorized to be adapting to climate change by becoming more aggressive.
