Now, with time running short and four massive Japanese fleets readying to deliver the death blow to the United States carrier force, yet another secret plan is being set in motion. An experimental new Japanese submarine is being readied for an attack which if successful, could cripple the American war effort even further. A super weapon is on a collision course with

All tubes loaded and all weapons armed – The world will quake under the explosive impact of the world’s mightiest fleets! Cannons thunder, torpedoes race and egos clash in this second installment of the adventures of USS
Bull Shark.

What readers are saying...
"Being a Shipfitters wife, whose Navy husband was on a few Submarine Tenders - this was a great story. All I can say is "More, More, More !"

"For historical fiction, Scott Cook is dialed in..."

"This is a story that any sailor, sub or surface, would enjoy! It is just technical enough, but the crew is realistic and exciting to follow."
