Commander Dan Lenson is assigned to conduct a major international naval exercise, with players from South Korea, the U.S., Britain, Japan, and Australia. But old alliances are unraveling, and one night at sea in a South Korean frigate, it seems World War III is about to begin. A team of submarines races down the coast from North Korea to South Korea's most important port, and Dan realizes that this is the first part of a strategy to overrun the country. Together with a ruthless Korean ship commander, Lenson battles nuclear-armed submarines, two typhoons, and his own doubts, to stop World War III on the brink. Featuring incredible action and sea adventure, "Korea Strait" is a first-rate thriller.
