Description
YOUR MONEY BACK OR YOUR LIFE . . . Protect America's shores with your very own nuclear submarine! Constructed from durable fiberboard material, this submersible is large enough for two kids! Sail off into imaginative international intrigue for just $1.99! If this toy doesn't float your boat, return it for a full refund!
With her son's heart set on piloting his own nuclear submarine, Rosemary Lanchester orders the craft advertised on the back of a comic book. What arrives is more sub-standard than submarine, but her son loves the cheap piece of cardboard. Until he and a friend nearly drown when they take the sub for a deep sea dive in the swimming pool.
Enraged, Rosemary reports the toy's manufacturer to the Better Business Bureau. The company's customer service center retaliates with threatening phone calls. Then her son and husband mysteriously disappear.
To save her family, Rosemary tracks down the company's headquarters with the help of her brother -- a survivalist with enough toys of his own to wage an all-out war.
And she still wants her $1.99 refunded.
