The Bin Laden Plot: A Novel (Trident Deception Series, 7)

The Bin Laden Plot
A U.S. destroyer is torpedoed by an Iranian submarine and Captain Murray Wilson of the U.S.S. Michigan is flown to the Pentagon to meet with the Secretary of the Navy (SecNav). There Wilson learns that the Iranian submarine is just a cover story. One of the United States' own fully automated unmanned underwater vehicles has gone rogue, it's programing corrupted in some way. Murray is charged with hunting it down and taking it out before the virus that's infected it's operating system can infect the rest of the fleet. At the same time, the head of the SEAL detachment aboard the U.S.S Michigan is killed and Lonnie Mixell, a former U.S. operative, now assassin for hire, is responsible. And that is only the first SEAL to be hunted down and killed. Jake Harrison, fellow SEAL, discovers that these SEALs had one mission in common - they were all on the team that killed Bin Laden. Or so the world was told. As Wilson discovers that his mission is actually meant to cover up dangerous acts of corruption, even treason, Harrison discovers that the assassin is out to protect the same forces. Forces too powerful for either of them to take on alone.

This is book #7 in Rick Campbell’s gripping nuclear submarine series, “Trident Deception.”

Again, Campbell’s experience as a former commander aboard a nuclear submarine is combined with his detailed story telling to create another winner. In this book, after a US Navy destroyer is sunk, the submarine USS Michegan is called in to find and destroy the seemingly broken secret weapon that was thought to have sunk the destroyer. The plot gets deeper as the US Navy SEAL team members who were responsible for hunting down Osama Bin Laden are themselves hunted down, by one of their own, former SEAL.

Turns out, Iran and another country is involved with the destroyer sinking and the peace of the world depend on both a submarine’s actions, along with others working at the top level of the US government.

This story is a bit of a cross of Patriot Games and Hunt for Red October.
