One of Tom Clancy's very best...the book that started it all. This is one of those books that keeps you turning the pages, and the movie was as good as the book!! If you like suspense at it's best, this is the book for you.

From the cover:
Somewhere under th Atlantic, Soviet sub commander has just made a fateful decision. The Red October is heading west. The American want her. The Russians want her back. And the most incredible chase in history is on...Here is the runaway bestseller that launched Tom Clancy's phenomenal career. A military thriller so gripping in its action and so convincing in its accuracy that the author was rumored to have been debriefed by the White House. Its theme: The greatest espionage coup in history. Its story: The case for a top secret Russian missile sub. Its title: THE HUNT FOR RED OCTOBER
