| Plot Summary of Barracuda Final Bearing |
|---|
"Set around 2015, this exciting military thriller centres around Japan attempting to invade Greater Manchuria - a new country formed from parts of Russia and China - to seize nuclear weapons stockpiles. When the special forces attack fails and a neutron bomb is used, the US condemns Japan and sets up a naval blockade in the Pacific. When a massive shooting war erupts, it is up to submarine commander Michael Pacino and his SEAWOLF-class sub fleet to prevent a world war using every resource they can muster."
