Santorini, written by Alistair MacLean, is one of the most intense and action packed books that I have ever read. In the middle of the Aegean Sea, the Ariadne, a Navy ship, finds itself caught up in a terrorist plot so deep, the Pentagon doesn't want anything to do with it. The bigger problem now is that the terrorists are now aboard the Ariadne. As the commanders try to battle the terrorists onboard, atomic mines are ticking below them, ready to blow at any time. When the officers finally get things under control, the terrorists make a move and hijack the sailboat that is supposed to transfer the mines to a remote area of the sea. The commanders come up with a solution to resolve the situation - but will it be too late? I would highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys fast paced, heart racing action and adventure. MacLean does a great job of creating a plot that keeps you guessing and has twists and turns around every corner. He forces your mind to think and try to untangle the mess of a plot that has the end of the world on the horizon. This a great book, with a lot of intense situations and surprise outcomes. The ending is great, a true shocker that you won't believe until you read it.
