THE HUNT FOR RED OCTOBER, Tom Clancy
Publisher's Note
Both the Americans and the Soviets commence an intense naval search when a trusted and skilled Soviet naval officer defects--using the USSR's most valuable nuclear submarine as his escape vehicle.

I thought this was an excellent book. The movie was done well, also, with Sean Connery as the Russian captain.
