Nimitz Class
The U.S.S. Thomas Jefferson is one of the most powerful warships in the world. A nuclear-powered Nimitz-class aircraft carrier, it is believed to be impregnable. But when the Thomas Jefferson suddenly disappears at sea, the Pentagon is stunned. There was no warning. No apparent attack. And no survivors. All signs point to a nuclear accident. But subsequent reports suggest that a rogue submarine, armed with nuclear warheads, may be on the loose. Where did it come from? How could it get within striking distance of the Thomas Jefferson? Worse yet, where is it now? The deadly chase begins.
Kilo Class
The 240-foot, nuclear-armed Russian Kilo-class submarine is one of the stealthiest and most dangerous warships ever built. Beijing has ordered ten Kilos from the cash-strapped Russians. With three delivered and seven more Kilos on the way, the task before Admiral Arnold Morgan, newly appointed U.S. National Security Adviser, is nothing less than to save the Pacific Rim from Chinese control. Morgan sends the U.S. Navy’s deadliest covert force, the elite SEALs, to penetrate deep inside the remote waters of northern Russia on a daring mission of destruction. Meanwhile, a brave U.S. captain heads his 7,000-ton nuclear vessel beneath the north polar ice cap toward a formidable Russian cordon determined that the Kilos be delivered at any cost. In a tense game of geomilitary survival, the world’s three most powerful nations face all-out war.
H.M.S. Unseen
H.M.S. Unseen is one of the most efficient, lethal submarines ever built. Not the sort of weapon one wants to go astray. But on a training mission off the English coast, Unseen vanishes. Soon after, planes begin blowing up in mid-air. U.S. National Security Adviser Admiral Arnold Morgan is convinced that only one man can be responsible: a reportedly dead terrorist mastermind—and he is right. Morgan’s old nemesis is there, somewhere, in a million square miles of ocean, at the helm of Unseen, and he is determined to bring Morgan to a face-to-face confrontation.
U.S.S. Seawolf
Using stolen U.S. military technology, the Chinese are producing a frightening new breed of ICBM weaponry. So U.S. National Security Adviser Admiral Arnold Morgan dispatches deep into the forbidden waters of the South China Sea the most advanced hunter-killer submarine in the U.S. fleet: the 9,000-ton, ultrasecret Seawolf—only to watch helplessly as an accident puts Seawolf under Chinese control. Morgan must then assemble the largest Special Forces assault group since Vietnam, to bring Seawolf, and her crew, home.
The Shark Mutiny
In partnership with Iran, the Chinese navy is holding the world’s oil supply hostage. Now eighty percent of America’s active sea power is being mobilized—including U.S.S. Shark, an aging nuclear submarine on what was to have been its quiet final tour of duty. But during a Navy SEAL assault on China’s Indian Ocean power plants, a disaster occurs that spawns death, disbelief, rage—and mutiny aboard Shark. Featuring an ensemble cast—headed by U.S. National Security Adviser Admiral Arnold Morgan—The Shark Mutiny moves from the secretive heart of the Chinese high command; to the control room of a U.S. submarine; to the screaming flight decks of the great aircraft carriers; all the way to a United States Navy court-martial. Epic in its sweep, meticulous in its authenticity, breathtaking in its pacing, The Shark Mutiny is the most dramatic story of rebellion on the high seas since The Caine Mutiny.
Barracuda 945
When a commanding officer of the UK’s Special Air Service (SAS), Major Ray Kerman, vanishes during a bloody skirmish in the Palestinian quarter of Hebron, it cannot be presumed that he is dead—especially when two of Kerman’s advisors are discovered murdered in a style that is consistent with SAS techniques. Has Kernan himself joined with the terrorist group Hamas? The evidence against Kerman becomes overwhelming to U.S. National Security Advisor Admiral Arnold Morgan as Hamas makes repeated strikes on Tel Aviv and Jerusalem with a sophistication previously undemonstrated. Confirmation comes with the seizing of a Russian Barracuda 945, one of the world’s most sophisticated submarines: it can fire cruise missiles with lethal accuracy and remain submerged—for years, if necessary. Hamas, Syria, Iran, and China all appear to be players as the Barracuda slices invisibly toward America’s West Coast…
The Guardian (UK): “Robinson has been called the British Tom Clancy, but I’d describe him as the new Frederick Forsythe. Barracuda 945 has the precision and momentum of Day of the Jackal, except that this jackal has an identity. He’s…SAS…turned Muslim terrorist whose global exploits make bin Laden look amateur.”
