When an extremist environmental group targets the French aircraft carrier Richelieu for a catastrophic sinking near Portsmouth Naval Base, the radioactive fallout could devastate southern England for decades. Their weapon of choice: an elderly disarmed frigate with nothing left to lose. Lieutenant Commander Chris Anderson thought his days of working alongside former KGB assassin Anton were behind him-until this crisis forces the unlikely allies back together.
Racing against time aboard HMS Durham under Captain Bob Blandford's command, they must navigate treacherous waters where environmental fanatics, French naval secrets, and Russian intelligence collide. With the Richelieu's nuclear reactors just hours from catastrophic breach, Anderson and Anton face their deadliest mission yet. But in the confined waters of the Solent, there's nowhere to run when the unthinkable becomes inevitable.
Some threats are too close to home to ignore.
