Description

A Cold War disaster that took ninety-nine lives, and was denied for forty years--what really happened to the USS Scorpion? May 1968: An American submarine is sent to investigate suspicious Soviet ships gathered in the mid-Atlantic. No one aboard the USS Scorpion was aware of the trap they rode into--that the Soviets planned revenge for the mysterious sinking of a Russian sub two months before...or that a traitor has been supplying the KGB with the US Navy's top-secret codes. In this thrilling story that portray the human side of a naval tragedy that was officially denied for forty years, veteran submariner and bestselling author Kenneth Sewell chronicles the astounding true events behind the demise of the USS Scorpion.
