Narrado por: A. J. Shuck

Modern-Day Piracy Moves Under the High Seas

A band of modern-day pirates station-hops across the Indian Ocean. Each attack bolder and more costly than the last, these pirates leave behind a trail of broken bodies, businesses, and stolen submarines at every undersea station they visit—and it’s up to Lieutenant Commander Alex Coleman and USS Kansas (SSN 810) to stop them.

Teaming up with with his old college roommate and not-so-gentle giant, marine lieutenant colonel Paul Swanson, Alex sets out to hunt the pirates down. But these pirates aren’t in rundown little skiffs that are easy to track and find. They’ve got a genuine warship and the will to turn weapons against innocent civilians and undersea stations, and more importantly, they’re good at stealth.

With time running out, Alex he convinces his friendly neighborhood U.N. representative to rent a ridiculously expensive civilian submarine. This way, he and his marines can play bait for the pirates. But there's no time to reflect on the wisdom of the mission when the pirates come aboard to face more than they bargained for and Alex finds himself staring death in the face.

This book is the prequel to the series War of the Submarine, available on both Kindle Vella and with book 1, Cardinal Virtues, on Kindle Unlimited and in Paperback and Hardcover.
