Grave of the Northern Fleet Book 1: A Riveting Submarine Thriller of a Typhoon SSBN with Live Warheads Gone Wrong
From two time Amazon #1 Bestseller author.
His son tapped on the hull for four days. The Russian government decided rescue was politically inconvenient.
Captain Viktor Sobolev hasn't forgotten.
Two years of planning. Eighty-three men united by grief. One the Sovetsky Gnev, a mothballed Typhoon-class submarine — the largest ever built. They will steal it from a frozen naval graveyard. They will sail it into international waters. And they will read the names of the 118 men who died aboard the Kursk to a world that stopped listening.
But the submarine holds a secret that Moscow buried. The missile silos aren't empty. Two hundred nuclear warheads sit armed, targeted, and ready to launch — maintained by men who never intended for anyone to find them.
A memorial has become a crisis. The crew is fracturing. Every navy on earth is converging. And Viktor Sobolev must hold together eighty-three grieving men sitting on the apocalypse — before the world decides they're too dangerous to leave alive.

Horrible
So many plot holes and inconsistent passages it was like a different person wrote each chapter but didn't read the previous one. The writer doesn't even know where the story takes place. He keeps mentioning the Barent sea but then ends up near Japan not even close. One paragraph the sub is on the surface but then he mentions the crushing depths pushing down. Terrible. This story is a wreck and every page mentions grief yeh We get it. Did I mention this is a horribly written book?

This book had so much promise but it ended up being a dysfunctional rambling timeline. It almost seems that this is the compilation of a bunch of the author’s notes. In one chapter they open every missile tube, and then in three chapters on they only have one open. The US Captain opens her outer torpedo doors and three chapters later her sonar has just found the Typhoon. Makes absolutely no sense. Whoever edited this prior to publication should be fired.
