About this ebook
The acclaimed author of the USA Today bestseller Pride Runs Deep returns to the pulse-pounding depths of international suspense as an undersea war is waged…
Returning from deployment in the Middle East, attack sub USS Providence has received emergency tasking orders only miles from homeport. The mission: head for Indonesia and evacuate U.S. citizens endangered by a violent rebellion.
Positioned on the front lines of the war on terrorism, the hunters of the USS Providence are now the hunted as they become engaged with a rebel sub in an epic undersea duel.
And only the victor can surface alive.

In general a very good read, but there are a few not so good items.First I am a retired (22 years) Petty Officer First class of surface fleet. Number one, an enclosed gun (5" and under) is called a mount. A gun 6" and over is in a turret. Second, When a ship or boat picks up a swimmer in the water you place the craft down current and let the swimmer come to the ship or boat, If you don't the the ship or craft can pass over the swimmer. Third, advancement requires more than just the Captain's word. Navy Wide exam and study courses of rate.
