Story
As they listened to the death throes of their sister ship Mako sinking in the Pacific where the waters were six miles deep, the crew of USS Eelfish suddenly came of age. They were a new breed: a brand-new fleet submarine crewed by draftees and reservists. Hidebound regular Navy officers believed they wouldn't fight. But fight they did with reckless abandon, proving themselves on two fronts - against the Japanese at sea, and against their own Admirals, who clung to outmoded concepts of how to wage war under the sea.

Story
She was a monster, sleek and gleaming, designed to strike without warning like the dreaded shark. She was the USS Mako, as fearless and bold as any submarine that ever prowled the blue Pacific. Her mission: seek out and destroy the hitherto invincible ships of the Japanese Imperial Navy - and revenge the earlier defeats of a long and dirty war. Here is the story of the men who pitted their lives against impossible odds in the most dangerous branch of the American armed services.

Story
It was a time for America and her heroes: men like Michael and Andrew O'Connor, rival brothers fresh out of Annapolis, men who left all they knew and loved to seek glory in a world at war. Mike beneath the ocean aboard the USS Tigerfish, Andrew in the air as a fighter pilot ace. Theirs was a baptism by fire, yet they rose to confront a brutal enemy across the sea-and to chase the explosive dreams that could ultimately destroy them.

Story
After a harrowing war patrol in the Sea of Japan, the US submarines of Wolfpack 351 are low on fuel, torpedoes, and morale. Their only means of escape is a narrow passage teeming with enemy aircraft, mines, and coastal batteries - and guarded by a menacing Japanese fleet led by a legendary admiral hellbent on stopping them. Facing the imminent destruction of the entire wolfpack and with few options remaining, the American admirals in Pearl Harbor turn to an aging submarine, the only boat close enough to help.

Story
In late 1944, America’s recapture of the Philippines is jeopardized by what seems an insurmountable threat from Japan: immense Yamato-class battleships, which dwarf every other ship at sea. Built in total secrecy, these 76,000-ton warships seem invincible. American military intelligence knows of two such ships, but there are rumors of a third, built not as a battleship but as an aircraft carrier. Now ready to go operational from Japan’s heavily defended and mined Inland Sea, a carrier of that size could disrupt the entire invasion effort.

Publisher's Summary
It was an unprovoked attack, a deliberate act of aggression. When Vice Admiral Mike Brannon of the US Navy received word that the wreck of the Sharkfin had been found, with a gaping hole in its stern, he could only conclude that the Soviets had, without warning, attacked and destroyed a US nuclear submarine. He could not let the incident pass without retaliation. Yet whatever steps he took, he risked leading the two superpowers into a state of war. If he informed the president, it might take weeks for Congress to take action - too long. Whatever response was to be made, it had to be made decisively and immediately. Harry Homewood presents a novel of mounting tension, a story of today's naval superpowers locked in a deadly battle that brings an unknowing world to the brink of nuclear holocaust.

Gripping
This is the last book of a trilogy about submarines. Unlike most of Homewood’s books which were about World War II submarines, this book is about the Cold War. Homewood is well educated about the Silent Service and has written many books on the subject. But I felt the plot of this story was a bit unrealistic; that being said, I did enjoy the book. I found it to be exciting and loaded with action and suspense. The book is six hours and twenty-eight minutes. Corey M. Snow does a good job narrating the book. Snow is a full-time audiobook narrator.

Not Much Submarine Action
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not? Not really. I expected to hear a story about submarine combat, but instead got global politics and palace intrigues. What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!) Was that IT? Any additional comments? Harry Homewood's WW2 sub books are worthy, UNlike this one.

Well done Mr. Homewood, Great story!
Plot stretched the imagination a bit, however if you don't hold that one point against the book you have an interesting game of chess of politics between two nations.

Molasses During a Cold Winter
Boston is still said to smell of the viscous liquid spilled when a huge molasses storage tank disintegrated near Boston Garden's future site..
I think I whiffed it those few times I was able to attend hockey games there , blood also fell on the ice as masks were not required of goalies then.
I don't think these have much to do with the book, which was good, but what could a young boy make of these vague portents?
