Operation Ice Breaker
(2020)(The second book in the Mac McDowell Mission series)
A novel by Robert Williscroft
This is a novel about the real thing and real events, not traditional Hollywood drama.
"Operation Ice Breaker is more than a cat-and-mouse thriller with nail-biting action both above the ice sheets and in the icy depths beneath. The realism is unmatched as Williscroft draws upon his extensive experience in submarines and covert warfare."
— Dr. Dave Edlund, USA Today Bestselling Author, The Peter Savage Thrillers
USS Teuthis Saturation Dive Team Officer-in-Charge Mac McDowell is leading his submarine team on a mission to lay SOSUS listening network arrays under the ice in the Arctic when they clash with a new Alfa-class highly automated Soviet submarine. Overwhelmed by mechanical problems, the Soviet crew abandons their sub under the ice near Pt. Barrow, Alaska, where Mac and his team surreptitiously arrange for their rescue. The Teuthis skipper launches the Deep Submersible Rescue Vessel Mystic, so Mac and his crew can board the empty sub and gather intelligence. The arrival of an even more advanced Soviet sub leads to breathtaking underwater clashes with the specter of war looming. Will the Soviets sink Mac and his crew to their watery graves, or will Teuthis safely return to Alaska where Mac's new love, Kate, anxiously awaits his return?
