Nimitz Class

The United States Nimitz-Class Aircraft Carrier Thomas Jefferson is a $1-billion state-of-the-art war machine, secure at the heart of the battle group it commands, dominating its 1,000-mile radius patrol area in the Arabian Sea. Its 6,000 crew members are on operational duty preserving the peace and Western allied interests in the strategically vital waters which guard the Strait of Hormuz.

And then the unthinkable happens.

Suddenly, without warning, the Thomas Jefferson is vaporised in what appears to be a nuclear accident. The loss of life is devastating, the greatest peacetime disaster in US history. The shock waves reverberate around the world. But even as the American nation is grieving, Lt. Commander Bill Baldridge of US Naval Intelligence – the brother of one of the victims on board the carrier – is beginning to piece together Intelligence reports which suggest a rogue submarine on the loose. It's a small, diesel-electric, ex-Soviet boat, but no-one knows who is on hoard, nor where it came from, nor how it got within striking range of the Thomas Jefferson. Worse yet no-one knows where it now is. Even more sinisterly, might it strike again? There appears to be a Middle Eastern connection, and gradually one name emerges as a clue to what has happened. Baldridge will not rest until he has uncovered his brother's killers, and the deadly chase is on...

NIMITZ CLASS is a compelling, completely authentic novel about the ultimate dread of the Western world: terrorists on the loose in a submarine capable of delivering a torpedo containing a nuclear warhead. The most remarkable and frightening fiction debut since Tom Clancy's The Hunt far Red October, NIMITZ CLASS will prove as controversial as it is thrilling. Patrick Robinson was the co-author of Admiral Sir Sandy Woodward's bestselling Falklands memoir One Hundred Days and he has drawn extensively on Admiral Woodward's experience and expertise for this novel that immediately establishes him at the forefront of contemporary thriller writers.

My RETURNS & POSTAGE and PACKING Policies

If you wish to return a book please let me know as soon as possible but no later than three days after receipt. 

If you feel, and I agree after we have discussed it, that my description was misleading or inaccurate then, upon the receipt of the book in the condition you received it, I will then refund all your payment plus your return postage. 

If the book isn't what you really wanted and if we agree, then, upon my receipt of the book in the condition you received it, I will then refund your bid price.

I have found, so far, that the majority of my buyers are genuine.

For my part I try and describe the books as fairly as possible - I am not a professional - and do not like buyers to feel dissatisfied. 

My Postage and Packing charges are calculated before wrapping as best I can with a very nominal amount added for packaging costs.

With the new Royal Mail UK pricing it is impractical (and expensive) to pack books together so multiple buys within a seven day period are posted at cost. This means that in the case of Pay Pal payers the first book is sent off for the quoted P & P charge and I either quote for the subsequent P & P minus the overspend on the first book, or if it has been paid, refund the difference.
