Book Overview

When asked what he does for a living . . .

Commander Mark Bishop is deliberately low-key: "I'm in the Navy." But commanding the ballistic missile submarine USS Nevada, keeping her crew trained and alert during ninety-day submerged patrols, and being prepared to launch weapons on valid presidential orders, carries a burden of command like few other jobs in the military. Mark Bishop is a man who accepts that responsibility, and handles it well. And at a time when tensions are escalating around the Pacific Rim, the Navy is glad to have him.

Mark wants someone to come home to after sea patrols. The woman he has in mind is young, with a lovely smile, and very smart. She's a civilian, yet she understands the U.S. Navy culture. And he has a strong sense that life with her would never be boring. But she may be too deep in her work to see the potential in a relationship with him.

Gina Gray would love to be married. She has always envisioned her life that way. A breakup she didn't see coming, though, has her focusing all her attention on what she does best--ocean science research. She's on the cusp of a major breakthrough, and she needs Mark Bishop's perspective and help. Because what she told the Navy she's figured out is only the beginning. If she's right, submarine warfare is about to enter a new and dangerous chapter.

Pathetic main characters

The two main characters are flat and lack emotion and substance. Mark, the male character, is a pathetic, pushy, condescending man who thinks he knows more than the female character, Gina. He doesn't respect a relationship she is currently in. If he was supposed to be a "player", then I can see that. But he's supposed to be this upright, polished, honorable man in the Navy; he comes across as everything but. Gina is a wimp who can't make up her mind. She strikes me as being a little mouse who is scared to do anything without someone's approval. Frail. Spineless. The research Henderson put into the book is amazing. I found the facts very interesting. I've read this book multiple times, hoping to see if differently, but I never do. It's still the worst book I've ever read by Dee Henderson. And yet I know I'll read it again...hoping, because I like the thought of the book and what I know she intended to write and get across.
