He was one of the world's most skilful submariners. Trained by the best in the business - the Royal Navy - and now at the peak of his powers and skill, he finally comes into his own. Because for years, he has been a sleeper for the enemies of the West. He has been given his orders and will carry them out with brutal efficiency, or die in the attempt. His target? The oil-supply lines that carry America's life blood from the frozen wastes of Alaska to the power-hungry refineries of America's West Coast. His weapon? A lethal submarine - Barracuda 945 - that he hijacks before setting off in search of the pipelines he will destroy. And the Barracuda, like the shark it is named after, is swift, silent and deadly. Who can stop him? Only the Special Forces and the submariners of the West's navies, but only if they can trace him in the first place and eliminate him before he destroys the oil supply routes. Barracuda 945 is Patrick Robinson's sixth breathtaking thriller. Terrorism rears its death-dealing head in a way that has become all too real since the events of September 11th 2001.

This book introduces the villain who later appears in Scimitar SL-2. A former SAS Commando who joins Hamas. He and his wife and a crew are on the loose on a submarine in the oceans of the world, with a plan to bring America to her knees. As usual, Robinson combines intelligence gathering, political arm-wrestling and daring SEAL Black Ops for a great story. He makes you believe that the Panama Canal could really be blown up by a SEAL team to expose a rogue sub. The one line that surprised me was when Shakira asked to be a crew member on the sub, and Ravi said, 'Might I remind you that no woman has ever served on board a submarine, not in any Navy, anywhere in the world?No one has ever dared to recruit them to serve in submarines.' For an author like Robinson, who considers himself an expert and does such thorough research, I'm surprised that he is unaware that Canada, Norway, and Australia all currently have female submariners serving.
