Periscope Red

(1980)
A novel by

 
 
At the heart of Richard Rohmer s most compelling and ambitious novel is the capacity of the over 380 submarines of the Soviet Navy to interdict and destroy the world s oil tanker f^eet. As the East-West conflict escalates, the superpowers move toward a frightening collision in their quest for supremacy. The issue and the weapon is control of Middle Eastern crude oil.
Certain to be an international best seller, Periscope Red is the triumphant successor to Balls!, Ultimatum, andExxoneration. Again Richard Rohmer deftly reveals his insider's knowledge of the energy industry and the military, and his master storyteller's ability to bring it alive.
Rohmer has built a novel that is, in every way, believable a portent of what very well could happen. His writing is strong and sure.
