- Synopsis
- WHILE TRAILING a Chinese nuclear attack sub, Jerry Mitchell, the new captain of the equally new USS North Dakota, watches as the Chinese boat torpedoes a Vietnamese merchant ship. Stunned by this blatant act of war, Mitchell and his crew are also perplexed: the Vietnamese vessel wasn't where it was supposed to be. These two mysteries are the opening act in a war that has blindsided the United States and quickly embroiled all nations in the western Pacific. Banding together in the Littoral Alliance, they begin a covert submarine campaign determined to cripple China's economy before China can further its secret plan to dominate the region. In a desperate attempt to keep the conflict contained and give the president a chance to resolve the crisis diplomatically, Mitchell's submarine squadron is ordered to interfere with attacks by both sides. Their goal: prevent losses as well as victories. A loss by either China or the Alliance would be disastrous, not only for the warring countries, but for the United States and, indeed, the whole world. In a race against time, the submarines of Mitchell's squadron must execute their mission before the world sees an economic catastrophe— or worse, a nuclear exchange.
