There have been rumblings that “Dee Henderson is slipping; her writing has changed! This isn’t ANYTHING like her O’Malley series!”
Well, guess what . . . this isn’t the next installment of the O’Malley series. And I’m here to let you know . . . Dee Henderson IS NOT SLIPPING! The romantic suspense is still there, stronger than ever but better; because of its subtlety. And the “learning curve” that Dee Henderson had to work through in order to write UNDETECTED is not something for the faint of heart.
From page one, the book had me hooked. It’s just that good!!!
Commander Mark Bishop is in charge of the Gold Crew on board the ballistic missile submarine USS Nevada. He is one of a handful of picked men, highly trained for a burden of command like few others jobs in the military: keeping the crew of the Nevada trained and alert during ninety-day submerged patrols, and being prepared to launch nuclear weapons upon presidential authority. It makes for a long day, and a stressful . . . and lonely . . . life. Which is why Mark wants someone to come home to.
Gina Gray, aka “Gina The Genius,” would love to be married. An unexpected breakup, though, has her focusing her attention on what she does best. Gina has had more breakthroughs in ocean science research than anyone twice her age. She’s on the cusp of yet another one . . . and if she’s right, submarine warfare is about to enter a new and dangerous chapter.
5 stars for riveting suspense and romantic intrigue
