Deep Flight — Scott Carpenter
THE SWORD OF THE PACIFIC IS POISED TO STRIKE--IN A LIGHTNING BID FOR WORLD DOMINATION!
Rick Tallman, Lieutenant Commander, USN, has been recalled to duty on the Steel Albatross, a sonar-proof stealth sub that has already revolutionized underwater warfare. This, however, was supposed to be a peaceful mining operation, sending the Albatross to U.S. territorial waters off Guam. But the mission is about to turn into an explosive deep-sea duel....
At stake is the legendary Emperor's Sword. Rumored to lie on the t' ocean floor near the mining site, the Sword is more than a historical relic; buried with it is a secret that could thrust ultra-right-wing Japanese nationalists, in alliance with the Yakuza (the Japanese mafia), into power. Shackled by his disbelieving superiors and forced to confront the menace alone, Tallman has no choice but to seize the Steel Albatross. The battle will put his Navy SEAL training--and the sub's high-tech weaponry--to the ultimate test under fire.
