A massive floating fortress, the Nimitz-Class nuclear carrier represents the pinnacle of military power, capable of devastating entire cities. When the Thomas Jefferson mysteriously disappears, disbelief turns to horror as reports reveal it has been lost to a catastrophic nuclear detonation. Navy maverick Bill Baldridge, mourning his brother's death in the disaster, uncovers a chilling possibility: a rogue submarine, commanded by a masterful undersea warrior, may be behind the incident. With America's ultimate weapon rendered vulnerable, Baldridge must race against time to track down this nuclear terrorist, who poses an even greater threat with another torpedo ready to launch. Meanwhile, the Kilo Class submarine, a stealthy and dangerous Russian vessel coveted by rogue nations, becomes a focal point of tension. The Pentagon reacts with fury as Russia prepares to sell these submarines to a Middle Eastern country, but the real danger arises from a Chinese order for ten new Kilos. The U.S. is aware of China's ambitions to assert control over Taiwan, and a fleet of Kilos could enable that. The President's National Security Adviser, Admiral Arnold Morgan, authorizes covert operations to prevent the delivery of these submarines. As tensions rise, a U.S. Black Ops submarine and elite Navy SEALs prepare for a high-stakes mission deep in Russian waters, with the potential to ignite a global conflict if anything goes wrong.
