Not a bedtime read - you won't turn off the light until you have finished! - Islander I could almost feel the thunderous power of the steam turbines coming out of my Kindle.- Peter D. Woodward An excellent book. A switchback story, lots of plot twists. One of those difficult to put down reads. - Elleson More I can still smell bearing-burnt oil from the engine room, and taste salt water on my lips. Without a doubt Laswell's dramatic closing scene is one of the most powerful I have experienced in a very long time. - Michael Carrier A book for fans of Clancy, Follett, Reeman, and Poyer. The Marathon Watch pits treachery, deceit, and betrayal against naval traditions of duty, honor, and loyalty. At the center of this struggle is the oldest US naval destroyer, the USS Farnley. The Chief of Naval operations steps in to rescue the Farnley and bring an unscrupulous admiral to justice, but disaster strikes. Guided by the canons of tradition, the Farnley's courageous captain and crew disobey the admiral's orders. In a life-or-death struggle, the Farnley sails in harm's way to save the life of a single man and the future of the US Navy. If not for the battery life of my iPad, I would have finished this book in one long sitting. - Julia Moran Martz The author . . . creates a real authenticity to the writing, reminiscent of Douglas Reeman and David Poyer. - An Amazon Reader It was great to read a book able to make the traditions and culture of the US Navy come to life and have meaning. - Andrea Luhman
