Nimitz Class

Summary

You could find best-selling author Patrick Robinson's nail-biting naval technothriller splashed across the front pages of tomorrow's newspapers. It's 2002, and the invincible, nuclear powered Nimitz-Class aircraft carriers and their support ships have earned the respect and fear of seagoing vessels everywhere. Participating in routine exercises in the Indian Ocean, the enormous U.S. Carrier Thomas Jefferson, and her crew of 6,000 suddenly vanish from the radar screens-undeniable proof they have somehow been destroyed. A stunned nation hangs on the President's every word as he proclaims it a freak nuclear accident. But Lieutenant Commander Bill Baldridge, whose brother had commanded the Jefferson, believes there is a more sinister explanation. Afraid for the safety of the remaining carriers, Lt. Baldridge searches for answers on a risky journey that takes you from secretive, foreign military bases to the murky depths of the seas. If you enjoy an explosive plot filled with constant surprises, you won't be able to turn off Patrick Robinson's well-written tale, dramatically narrated by George Guidall.
