About this audiobook
THE ENEMY IS ON BOARD.
Two massive ships are on a dual path to destruction. One is a freighter carrying nuclear materials to Japan; the other, a cruise ship heading for the Mediterranean. Neither will reach their destinations. Two factions—Japanese eco-terrorists and Middle East extremists—have joined forces to infiltrate the ships, incapacitate the crew, and change course toward a common target: the United States of America.
DETONATION HOUR IS APPROACHING.
In Washington, Charlie Dean and a team of commandos are dispatched on a life-or-death mission to blow the hijackers’ plot out of the water. Their plan: board the ship unnoticed, pose as ordinary passengers, and overtake the terrorists. But time is running out. The seized ships are crossing the Atlantic with the combined strength of a full-scale nuclear torpedo. And New York City is just on the horizon.…

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5"Sea of Terror" in short: Hijacked ships, crazed Islamic (and Japanese) terrorists, nuclear arms and commando style rescues. In traditional techno-thriller fashion the narrative skips around too much with too many characters to really keep track of. In all, a good seafaring yarn, even if conclusion was a bit too tidy.
