Résumé

Desperate in the shadow of a mushroom cloud, can she repair her heliplane and launch before the vengeful Japanese find them?Pilot Shoney O'Brien can't believe they left. Scared and angry that the Nevada Navy submarine Mako abandoned them with the Japanese closing in, Shoney fears for her heliplane crew. The atomic shockwave that put them on a Japanese beach six miles from ground zero fried the engine electrics.
Blood pounding in her ears, she works sweaty and slippery fingers to cross-connect every damaged part in the electrical panel.  This beach is their graveyard if she can't get at least two fuel cells online---never mind the rifle-bearing Japanese cadre double-timing down the windswept beach. Can Shoney reconnect the last fuel cell and find Mako before the approaching coal-black radioactive cloud poisons the air, the danger-close cadre bullets or low-flying fighters blast her and her crew to bloody shreds?Dive into a harrowing tale where one woman's tenacity is tested against a desperate and vengeful Japan at the dawn of the atomic age.   First Edition Review:4.0 out of 5 stars Great Conclusion in WW2 fiction Verified PurchaseEscape from Hiroshima is a continuation of the Rescue at Hiroshima novel.
In this continuation, the submarine with the refugees aboard has to escape Japan's Inland Sea without getting sunk by the Japanese Navy, which thinks that the submarine's crew somehow set off the Hiroshima bomb. The relationships developed in the first book progress into new territory in the second, adding a deeper interest in the characters. The dialogue between the characters is better than in the first book, and some of the anecdotes are quite good.
Smith, as with the first book, does well with the battle sequences, and introduces weather as a factor, which makes the action more interesting. The technical aspect of things, in my opinion, is not as necessary for the book, but again, if you let this float on by, the book is interesting and exciting. Smith has included maps in this second book as well, so that helps with the more complex sequences.
As I said in the review of the first book, recommended if you like Tom Clancy, Dale Brown, Michael Crichton, Larry Bond and Michael DiMercurio.
