Rating: 5 out of 5

Very good techno-thriller.  Plot keeps a good pace and believable twist.  Not sure about a fired diplomat still having military access that part didn't quite track.  Author should have left her in the grey state of having to prove herself but great heroine all the same.  A female Jack Ryan, just the right amount of brains and resolve.  Could have introduced a potential future love interest there.  The lag between election and elected is a dangerous time as the author points out, really surprised an enemy of the US has never exploited that.Great undersea and surface action.  Castillo too was terrific as the nerves of steel, veteran submariner captain.  Both President and President-elect were real tools- pretty realistic given the last two....Definitely like to hear more from this author and his main character, don't understand why this book didn't hit number one back when it was published. Its a ripper.
