- Synopsis
- MORE EXPLOSIVE UNDERSEA ACTION IN THE HEAT OF THE COLD WAR The year is 1987. Ronald Reagan is in the White House. A secret arms deal for hostages has just been exposed. The Middle East is fiery hot. The seas of the Russian Pacific are ice cold-and teeming with some of the most sophisticated weaponry humankind has ever devised. U.S. Navy SEALs are brilliantly proving their courage and extraordinary skill in a daring raid on Lebanon, a plan devised by Commander Frank Gordon. In acknowledgment of his first-rate strategic skills, Gordon is assigned to head up a bold undertaking into dangerous enemy waters. Placed in command of the Los Angeles Class submarine Pittsburgh - a realization of his life's greatest ambition - Gordon, along with his crew and a hand-picked team of SEALs will venture into the deadly, Russian-patrolled seas off the Kamchatka Peninsula. For intel has sent reports of an awesome new Soviet sub that no one in the West has ever seen before. And it's Gordon's mission to go up against the phantom boat-even at the risk of a shooting war. The SEALs are to go where the Pittsburgh cannot. But the game is more perilous than anyone has imagined. For the enemy has its own reasons for luring U.S. forces onto Russian turf. And there is a highly placed spy in the American ranks who may, even now, be leading a boat full of brave men to their doom.
