Hot Run tells the story of 2nd Class Petty Officer Thomas Quinn, as he prepares to ship off to Officer Candidate School to be commissioned. He thinks he has the perfect mentor in his submarine’s Commanding Officer, Captain Michael Maddox. However, when a special operation brings some mysterious cargo and its foreign escorts aboard the USS Key West, it’s up to Quinn and his rag-tag band of SEAL team wannabes to find out why the interlopers seem to display growing sovereignty over Captain Maddox and the submarine. Weaved into the narrative are the subtle details which make submarines one of the most harrowing assignments in the military, from the smells of the synthetic air, to the mental fatigue which comes from having nowhere to get away, except for a coffin-sized bunk. These stresses are what the conspirators exploit to keep the crew in check as they race to use the submarine in the most grievous attack on America in history. T. Steven Sullivan was a diver aboard the Los Angeles class fast-attack submarine, the USS Key West SSN-722. Drawing on his experience, he has written Hot Run so that you can be transported into the life of a submariner like no other submarine novel has done before.
