Journal 3

After finding the remains and being told by an examiner the incident was shark related, all of a sudden the examiner explains to Brody how he was mistaken and the damage was done in a boating accident and Brody went along with it. How often does a professional examiner mistake a shark bite for purpellors? I believe this was obviously set up by the mayor to keep Brody's mind off it, but not long after being told it wasn't a shark, Brody still seems to show he does have a feeling that a shark could possibly be out there. Where I currently am Chief Brody is on the beach (which is packed) with his family enjoying the nice day but I have a feeling things are about to pick up at Amity. So far the books been okay with a few parts I didn't really understand but other than that I can see why this would scare people way back when it was released. It's almost as if the book is warning you about sharks and how easily an attack can happen.
