If you liked THE HUNT FOR RED OCTOBER, you'll definitely like TO KILL THE POTEMKIN every bit as much. Two nuclear-powered submarines travel the dangerous oceans, filled with quirky characters, all focussed on one thing--'Control the seas to protect our country.'

From back cover:
:The BARRACUDA, the most advanced attack submarine in the U.S. undersea arsenal.
:The POTEMKIN, a shattering breakthrough in Soviet underwater weaponry.
Facing each other in a deadly contest, vessel against vessel becomes man against man. Jack Sorenson, the sonar genius, against Nikolai Federov, the beleaguered Soviet captain.
The hunter and the hunted--Who would win and who would lose? And would the world survive the lethal reality of two nuclear-powered predators...?
