Book description
Silent and undetectable, the Russian-built Kilo-Class submarine is the
only true enemy of the American Carrier Battle Groups -- and it is up
for sale. Having ordered ten from Russia, who are in dire need of
foreign currency, China primes its first three, ready to take control of
the Taiwan Strait. Desperate to safeguard its ally on China's doorstep
and stop the arrival of the Kilo-Class subs, America launches itself
into a secret war, led by the President's National Security Advisor,
Admiral Arnold Morgan. As the battle over peace, power and money is
played out in the icy depths of the world's oceans and the hinterland of
Russia's rivers and lakes, it becomes clear that there can only be one
victor ... PATRICK ROBINSON is the author of six previous
international bestselling thrillers: Nimitz Class, Kilo Class, H. M. S.
Unseen, Seawolf, The Shark Mutiny, Barracuda 945 and, most recently,
Scimitar SL-2. He is also the author of several non-fiction bestsellers
including True Blue (with Dan Topolski) and Born to Win. He is the
co-author with Admiral Sir Sandy Woodward of One Hundred Days.
