***************************************************************

SILENT. UNDETECTABLE. READY TO LAUNCH.

The Russian-built Kilo-Class submarine is the only true enemy of the American Carrier Battle Groups -- and it is up for sale.

Having ordered ten, China primes its first three, ready to take control of the Taiwan Strait.

Desperate to safeguard its ally on China's doorstep and stop the arrival of the Kilo-Class subs, America launches itself into a secret war, led by the President's National Security Advisor, Admiral Arnold Morgan.

It soon becomes clear that there can only be one victor ...
