It was a quiet life for retired Navy Commander, and SEAL, Ryan McKenzie enjoying his Hunter sail boat, until he sees a mysterious underwater craft in the open waters of the Gulf of Mexico. After seeing this mysterious craft, he is surprised and attacked by a foreign yacht and nearly killed - his sailboat destroyed miles from the nearest coastline. After a series of events, he is summoned to Washington D.C. to help in solving a vexatious problem. A middle-east terrorist is disrupting oil well production in the Gulf and the mysterious vessel he saw may be connected to those disruptions. Working for the US president, and with assistance from several government agencies, they lay out a course of action. As events unfold, he and his partners find a problem on one of the oil wells and he is, nearly killed in the depths of the Gulf. Subsequent events lead to the capture of a key terrorist and his highly capable mission yacht but at a high personnel cost by the US Coast Guard. Ryan is attacked in his own home by a terrorist but survives. Presidential support aircraft are attacked and some are destroyed. In concert with a very incensed president, and members of his staff, a plan is developed which leads to a final climax of action in the deserts of eastern Iran.
