About This Book

An accident at a German nuclear plant, an illegal arms deal, and a biological warfare attack on the British Embassy in Washington, DC, combine to ignite an international crisis that threatens to draw Western Europe, the Middle East, and the United States into all-out war. To prevent it, a handful of U.S. Navy destroyers and frigates must track down and destroy a Wolfpack of state-of-the-art submarines. The enemy is a NATO Ally: trained in U.S. naval warfare tactics, skilled in deception, and thoroughly lethal. Out-gunned, out-maneuvered, and out-thought, the crews of the U.S. Navy ships must become as devious as their enemies.

"Edwards wields politics and naval combat tactics with a skill equal to the acknowledged masters of military fiction."
—Military Press

"[TORPEDO] is the Top Gun of Surface Warfare."
—Barnes & Noble online customer review

"As the former Commanding Officer of a U.S. Navy warship, I was awestruck by the realism and plausibility of this novel. We've got to consider this scenario in the Global War on Terrorism."
—David Armstrong, Commander, USN (Ret.)

"TORPEDO kicks ass! Smart and involving, with an action through-line that shoots ahead like its namesake—fast and lethal."
—Paul L. Sandberg, producer of The Bourne Supremacy
