Could All Help With Signing My Petition

I am looking for a name of the book by James Aldridge about father and son, where the father gets attacked by a shark and his son saves him by flying him back in a plane.
Does it ring a bell?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I know. I have seen the movie (which was great) and that is why I wanted to find the book. But there is very limited info on the author on the net. I have his bibliography but no book descriptions so am stuck.
Posledniy dyum means last inch, the closest book to that name is The Last Exile, but again no description.

The author did write a short story called The Shark Net, published in Lilliput journal in 1959 (but if the film was released in 1958 the chronology is a bit out) but it's possible it might be that judging from the title, but can't find a lot of info on it either:

There are usually lots of Lilliput mags on ebay, so just a case of waiting for the right month/year - but no guarantees that this is in fact the story you are looking for!
