The mission was clear: Test a revolutionary propulsion system exponentially faster and quieter than any that has come before. If successful, America's supremacy in naval warfare would be assured.

For a thousand miles, the American boat is stalked by a Chinese submarine until a reckless attempt at espionage puts them on a collision course with disaster. Now, the shattered boats lie locked in a frozen embrace 150 feet below the Arctic waves. Each crippled sub needs the other to survive until rescue comes, but can rival warriors stand together against the harshest environment on Earth?

The U.S. military's Land Air Sea Emergency Rescue team has been summoned. These extraordinary rescuers must call upon their training, intelligence, and inexhaustible courage in a part of the world where no one else can-or is willing to-reach. And still, the clock ticks away the minutes until any attempt will come too late.

Praise for Tempest Down

"Terrific, a riveting, relevant, can't-stop-reading-it drama! Plan on an all-nighter when you pick up Jeff Rovin's latest technothriller masterpiece." -Joe Buff, author of Tidal Rip and Crush Depth

"Rovin emerges as a thriller writer in his own right...the subsequent yarn has all the fast pacing, state-of-the-art technology, and knowledge of international intrigue that this kind of thriller requires as well as characterization and ideological balance rather better than most of the competition. Looks like Rovin has a future in the genre."-Booklist

"Tempest Down...follows the finest naval traditions...a satisfying blend of heroism and opportunism. A highly recommended, fast-paced read." -Douglas De Bono, author of Rogue State

"An exhilarating high-tech adventure. From fighter jets to gliders, from cutting-edge submarines to foreign destroyers, the reader is in for a whiplash ride, propelled by Rovin's insider knowledge of international politics and the military. Watch out, Tom Clancy." -Gayle Lynds, author of The Coil

"Stand by for a fast and furious technothriller roller coaster with nail-biting action."
-Capt. David E. Meadows, U.S. Navy, author of The Sixth Fleet and The Joint Task Force series

"The stuff of high drama and nail-biting suspense...more important, however, is his cast-large, varied, and compelling, composed of believable, understandable characters to worry about, even those you don't always like...Rovin gets the people right and produces his best yet."
-Kirkus Reviews

"A vivid page turner, loaded with suspense. I felt as if I was in the action, terrified, and waiting to be rescued."-Allan Topol, author of the national bestseller, Spy Dance and Dark Ambition


fi0"Jeff Rovin's Tempest Down weaves three techno-loaded story lines together into a mind numbing, deadly contest under the ice in Antarctica that build to a searing, gripping, slam-bang climax. Don't miss it!" -Chet Cunningham, author of Hell Wouldn't Stop, and The Specialists Series
