It is 2009 and North Korea has purchased four outdated submarine
launched ballistic missile boosters from a French company tasked
with destroying the rockets. Because they are not a weapon in and
of themselves, international law governing the sale of strategic
weapons cannot prevent the acquisition. Both the US and Canadian
governments however, know too well what the unstable North Korean
leader intends for the rocket boosters in light of his failure to
successfully launch a missile of his own.
When a carefully planned covert mission to intercept the rockets
unravels due to mechanical problems with the ultra quiet spy
submarine USS Jimmy Carter, a replacement must be found and quickly
The surprising solution comes in the form of a Canadian
submarine.
Commander Michael Simpson, nearing the end of his career with
the Canadian navy has few doubts concerning his untried boat's
capabilities, and he knows that his crew is the best out there. The
only answer to his orders is the same one that has echoed
throughout the history of one of the world's best-trained navies;
'ready, aye ready'. The author takes the reader on a thrilling
adventure as the officers and crew of HMCS Corner Brook undertake a
mission fraught with danger.
