Frigate

When Captain Pascoe Trevellion of the Royal Navy is drafted on to the frigate Icarus , he knows a tense time lies ahead. With the spectre of nuclear war looming ever closer, the Cold War is entering a crucial phase, and NATO must respond to the escalating threat. Trevellion, whose calm and dignified exterior conceals a tragic personal secret, barely has time to greet his new crew before Icarus is plunged into a war simulation exercise. But the danger becomes all too real when an unexpected encounter between Icarus and a Russian submarine leads to a Soviet counter-attack. As the battle arena shifts to northern Norway, the Soviets become suspicious of NATO’s motives. Amidst sub-zero conditions, the Cold War escalates, and the world teeters on the brink of annihilation. Could nuclear warfare become a reality? And can Trevellion and his men do anything to stop it? Or will this clash of superpowers result in the ultimate devastation? --Back Cover
