The theft that shocked the world. The Soviet nuclear submarine Kirov has been stolen - seized by Central American rebels as a terrifying bargaining chip to prevent a CIA invasion. As nuclear weapons aim toward the U.S. from the ocean depths, sparks begin to fly between Moscow and Washington. Both governments refuse to surrender the military intelligence that could end the stalemate and avoid unthinkable disaster. The mission that risked it all. As delicate yet futile diplomatic negotiations continue, Navy Captain Peter MacKenzie receives an awesome assignment: recover the Soviet sub before it launches its deadly payload. The stakes have never been higher, and time is running out. Using state-of-the-art top-secret underwater high technology, MacKenzie dives through the silent sea toward a rendezvous that may very well threaten the future of the world.

Far beneath the polar ice-cap the Red Dawn, an ageing diesel-powered submarine, is trapped in ice. The USS Sea Wolf tracks the submarine but discovers that the Soviet sub is carrying a new propulsion system. The race is soon on because a Russian task force is also trying to rescue the sub.

FROM THE DARKEST DEPTHS OF THE SEAS TO THE BLAZING DESERT SANDS, THE WORLD'S MOST LETHAL WEAPONS ARE DANGEROUS HANDS! Navy Captain Peter MacKenzie is struggling to repair his personal life when he gets a credible order. Central Asian nationalists seeking independence from the Soviet Union have seized the capital U. S. S. Kentucky, the most elusive of, deep-diving minisub and the world; they plan to turn its nuclear missiles on Moscow. With their country on the brink of collapse, the Soviets need an American to hunt the Kentucky. They get MacKenzie. MacKenzie, now captain of a Soviet sub, hones his crew tirelessly in a fierce fight to prove himself. At the same time, he's being stalked on board by a Soviet Naval intelligence officer; and his estranged CIA agent wife is searching for the rest of the Kentucky's missing nuclear weapons, planted amidst the Soviet Union's richest oil fields. From the icy depths of the Arctic Ocean to the Straits of Gibraltar, McKenzie races in secret toward a treacherous target that threaten the world with war. . .

THE UNDERWATER HUNT OF ALL TIME! The tropical brilliance of the Bahamas is one of the world's most usual and select trading basis – the U.S. Navy school sports undersea "top guns", where the chosen few are rigorously trained and hand picked for the elite submarine command. The legendary officer in charge: Captain Peter MacKenzie, a commander whose reputation awes even the most hardened warriors. Now MacKenzie, with his ace recruits aboard the state-of-the-art U.S.S. Jacksonville, is about to jolt from a high-stakes, competitive exercise to a lethal mission – demanding ultimate teamwork and an all-or-nothing underwater pursuit. Across the Atlantic, amid the bitter winds of the Ukrainian port and Sevastopol, Russian Navy Captain Pari Avilov is forced to accept a desperate challenge: run the Northern Star, once the high-tech pride of the now-extinct Soviet Union's submarine fleet, under the ocean all the way to Cuba, where an international arms dealer and his Arab clients will accept delivery. Ultimately, only two obstacles will stand between the Northern Star and Cuban waters: MacKenzie and a formidable but unblooded top guns of the Jacksonville, inside the deadly passage called the canyon of the skulls.

A vintage attack sub rises from the grave to torpedo a deadly terrorist plot! Admiral Peter MacKenzie has stood at the helm of the most advanced submarines in the world—the U.S. Navy's nuclear-powered lords of the sea. Now, when Hawaii and America's Pacific coast are at risk, he has but one vessel under his command: the H.M.S. Storm, a World War II sub salvaged from the bottom of the sea. The Joint Chiefs of Staff in Washington have assigned Admiral MacKenzie to oversee the transfer of a shipment of plutonium from Russia to Japan. But fanatic Japanese terrorists have hijacked the deadly cargo in mid-ocean. Isolated on a South Seas island, MacKenzie and a small band of survivors are determined to raise the Storm and sink the terrorists before they unleash a ring of deadly fire. Success could come at a terrible price: The terrorists have taken hostages, among them Peter MacKenzie's CIA agent wife, bearing their unborn child. The Storm is underway—and it's a voyage into hell.
