The Sub

The most advanced nuclear submarine in history, the Cushing carries more explosive power than all the munitions used in two world wars.

The Mission

Like a sleek sea phantom, she secretly probes the icy Artic water off the northernmost tip of the U.S.S.R.

The Attack

Then - an inexplicable collision with an alien vessel. Wounded - perhaps mortally- the Cushing desperatly prepares to fend off a fatal attack...a blow that threatens not only the sub and the lives of the men on board - but the fate of an entire nation.
