As leader of the Israeli submarine Tekumah, Commander Gilad has the
sole authority to launch nuclear-tipped cruise missiles against
cities housing millions. But while out at sea, the unthinkable
occurs. Devastating nuclear explosions in Israel and attacks
against Israeli embassies destroy any chance of peace in the Middle
East.
Following the attacks, Gilad has no way to receive orders from
civilian or military authorities, and must draw on all his training
to lead his men and decide how and when to retaliate. Faced with a
lengthy mission, food and fuel shortages, a fire, and an attack by
a surface ship, Gilad struggles to maintain order.
As tensions rise, Gilad must persuade his own officers and
crew, as well as the vengeful commander of a second Israeli
submarine, of the path he has chosen. Sharon, a feisty female
intelligence officer onboard, staunchly supports him as well as
heroic crew members who stand ready to make the ultimate sacrifice.
Now, with millions of lives at stake, Gilad has some hard choices
to make, ones that may very well decide the fate of the free
world.
