Description
xThe inspiration for the blockbuster movie hit Hunter Killer starring Gary Oldman and Gerard Butler.
Under the frozen Arctic, a deadly mystery of espionage and subterfuge unfolds. A Russian submarine is torn apart in a sudden explosion. An American boat rushes to render aid--only to be destroyed itself. Two nations now stand on the brink of war, each convinced the other has struck first.
Into this volatile standoff sails the USS Toledo, commanded by Joe Glass, a captain untested in crisis but thrust into the fight of his life. What he finds beneath the ice is more than wreckage--it's the start of a power play with global stakes. And its architects aren't finished yet.
Only Glass and his crew stand between a shadow conspiracy and the spark that could ignite World War III.
In the tradition of Tom Clancy and Lee Child, George Wallace and Don Keith deliver a pulse-pounding military thriller--packed with authenticity, relentless action, and twists that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
Note: Hunter Killer was previously published as Firing Point.

xCommander George Wallace retired to the civilian business world in 1995, after twenty-two years of service on nuclear submarines. He served on two of Admiral Rickover's famous "Forty One for Freedom", the USS John Adams SSBN 620 and the USS Woodrow Wilson SSBN 624, during which time he made nine one-hundred-day deterrent patrols through the height of the Cold War.
Commander Wallace served as Executive Officer on the Sturgeon class nuclear attack submarine USS Spadefish, SSN 668. Spadefish and all her sisters were decommissioned during the downsizings that occurred in the 1990's. The passing of that great ship served as the inspiration for "Final Bearing."

During this tour of duty that he worked extensively with the SEAL community developing SEAL/submarine tactics. Under Commander Wallace, the Houston was awarded the CIA Meritorious Unit Citation.
