Title: We get to be the pirates, this time
Review: For the first 1/2 of this book I was totally lost. Disconnected events, murder, double cross, spy games, the seemingly unrelated story lines had me going for a while. It all DOES come back together for the final 1/2 of the book, but the motivation for the Russian Admiral defecting to the US because his wife died sounds suspiciously like the motivation for the sub commander in Tom Clancy's "Hunt for Red October" . This book was published 1988. Which came first? "S.S.N. Skate"or "Hunt..."
