Unheard, Unseen... - A Novel

As the two commanders are deployed, a rogue submarine, the Red Dragon, arrives in the Irish Sea to assist the IRA in planning bomb attacks in London. A Chinese terrorist named Mark Hong, an intelligent and ruthless man with connections to several communist countries, commands the vessel, as ordered by Chairman Mao. Hong plans to help the IRA in their fight against the British. But will the British and Americans be able to thwart the plot and destroy the Red Dragon?

With action raging from the Isle of Man to the Republic of Ireland and the heart of London, Chariotfish: Submariners Battle the I.RA is a fast-paced thriller, bursting with suspense and surprise.

In order to find out who instigated the attack, the Office of Budget and Plans, a secret Navy Intelligence and Black Ops Program, is tasked to track down the perpetrators. In the course of the search, Lt. Cmdr. Ed Candeto, a former SEAL, makes forays to India, North Korea, and Libya.

The attack also makes it necessary to call up reservists and once again activate an F-14 Squadron, VF-128, the Spartans. Wes Hardin is recalled from his perfect life and job as an airline pilot as is his soon to be friend, Tully Cane. Eventually they are assigned to the carrier U.S.S. Enterprise.

In the twists and turns of the investigation Candeto, Hardin, and Cane, must interact to bring resolution to the mission.

THE ONLY WAY TO SURVIVE IS TO CHANGE THE RULES.

A minor accident at a German nuclear power plant, a Biological Warfare attack on the British Embassy in Washington, DC, and a secret arms deal combine to drive a trusted NATO Ally into an illegal alliance with a rogue Middle Eastern state.  With the world hovering on the brink of war, a handful of U.S. Navy warships must track down and destroy a wolfpack of state-of-the-art submarines.

Their enemy is skilled in deception, and incredibly lethal.  Out-gunned, out-maneuvered, and out-thought, the U.S. Navy crews must throw the rulebook out the window, and become every bit as devious and deadly as their enemy.  If they fail, the consequences are unthinkable…

THE WORLD HAS FORGOTTEN THE TRUE NATURE OF TERROR.  IT’S ABOUT TO BE REMINDED.

A military revolt in southeastern Russia puts a former hard-line Soviet leader in command of a ballistic missile submarine and its arsenal of nuclear weapons. His goal: re-ignite the communist revolution, and recapture the might and glory of the fallen Soviet Union.  Without warning, Russia, Japan, and the United States become hostages in a scheme of international nuclear blackmail. When the warheads start falling and people begin dying, no one can pretend that it’s a bluff.

As the earth rushes toward extinction, a lone U.S. Navy warship must penetrate the Siberian ice pack to destroy the submarine before it can destroy the world.

It may already be too late.

Just as the ground war in Desert Storm begins, the U.S. military must destroy the most deadly weapon in Saddam Hussein's arsenal. An air strike is too risky. An infantry charge is too slow. Next move -- bring in the Navy SEALs! The place itself is meaningless -- a small island in the Persian Gulf. But on the island is a rocket full of anthrax. If it explodes, it is close enough to Kuwait to kill thousands of Kuwaitis and servicemen. If it is launched on a rocket, it is capable of reaching the U.S. military bases in Saudi Arabia. Only one group can destroy the weapon -- the Navy SEALs. Using a secret U.S. submarine, the SEALs understand how dangerous their mission will be. Even if they are able to get past Saddam's Republican Guard to their objective, the objective itself could kill them all. But with thousands of lives and the war itself hanging in the balance, they know there is no room for even the slightest mistake.
