An accident at a German nuclear plant, an illegal arms deal, and a biological warfare attack on the British Embassy in Washington, D.C., combine to ignite an international crisis that threatens to draw Western Europe, the Middle East, and the United States into all-out war.

The enemy is a NATO ally, trained in U.S. naval warfare tactics, skilled in deception, and thoroughly lethal. Out-gunned, out-maneuvered, and out-thought, the crews of the U.S. Navy ships must become as devious as their enemies.
