"…Wallace has come up with a beauty." - Booklist

As tensions of the Cold War peak between the United States and the Soviet Union, a shocking revelation within the US Navy sends shockwaves through the highest levels of government. A deeply embedded mole poses a threat not only to the delicate balance of global power, but to world peace itself.

Charged with the pivotal task of exposing the traitor, two submarines set out on a mission of strategic warfare. Maneuvering stealthily through the frigid waters near Greenland in pursuit of a Russian sub, a sudden clash ensues, laying bare the harsh realities of submarine combat in the vast, unforgiving ocean.

George Wallace skillfully constructs a narrative of suspense, loyalty, and betrayal amidst the backdrop of one of the most tense periods in history, where true heroism is put to the test, and the stakes of failure are unimaginably high.
