This paperback was a pick from the HPB run, but it was one of Mom's.
A submarine is struggling after a fire. It's up in the Arctic, and the only icebreaker is a research vessel. Joe is convinced to take his team and investigate the strange illness that has broken out. The Arctic is becoming a contested area since the ice is melting to the point where it can become a thoroughfare, so it's important to get to the submarine before anyone else does.
Once they finally find the sub, the situation is dire...and complex. The illness that has broken out is mysterious, and once they figure out what it is, they fear what it means for not only the members of the submarine, but the crew of the icebreaker as well.
I found this book to be very interesting. It's been a bit since I've read a book in this genre, and I really enjoyed the way this one was put together. I wish Joe and the Major could've cleared the air with the truth, but it didn't matter. The writing style flowed well, and I couldn't wait to see what happened next.
This is the first of a four-book series. The other three are Protocol Zero, Cold Silence and Vector. I wouldn't mind reading more in the future. Good Book!
