Among the civilians are the Captain's two young sons and a retired computer programmer. The USS WOODBRIDGE is also spending this time testing a new state of the art SONAR system.

In the dead of night, Iraqi Republican Guards sneak several canisters of the deadly anthrax virus across the border. The CIA learns of their plans, when the Iraqis are forced to kill a NATO inspection officer. The CIA sends a helicopter to stop them, but the Iraqis plow one of their trucks into the helicopter, enabling the truck carrying the anthrax to slip into Jordan.

Meanwhile, seismologists on the East Coast are puzzled by the curious readings their instruments are giving them. Could there really be an Earthquake brewing on the East Coast? When the earthquake hits, the seismologists are at first relieved, only to realize that the quake would create a series of catastrophic tsunamis. Shortly thereafter, portions of the East Coast are severely damaged.

The USS WOODBRIDGE, rocked by the deep-sea earthquake, surface to find that the naval base at Norfolk is unreachable. The new SONAR they were testing had been rendered useless by the shockwave. To make matters worse, their reactor is leaking. The Captain must send his own ten year-old son deep into the engine room to seal the reactor, while another one of the Tiger Cruise guests, the retired computer programmer, tirelessly examines the SONAR's computer code to fix the bug.

The Iraqis evade NATO officials and sneak the anthrax aboard a retired Soviet submarine, captained by a disillusioned Communist who longs for the good ole days. The CIA use everything in their power to track the Soviet sub, only to realize that the anthrax was actually stored on a stealth mini-sub. The three-man mini-sub, headed the long way around Africa, is undoubtedly headed for the United States...but the question is: where?

A game of cat and mouse ensues with the CIA, the Russian Sub, and the Iraqi piloted mini-sub. After missing the mini-sub with a Tomahawk missile, it's now up to the damaged USS WOODBRIDGE to save the day. Fortunately, the civilian programmer fixes the SONAR in time. Unfortunately, the mini-sub is equipped with the latest defensive technology and eludes every torpedo the USS WOODBRIDGE can throw at them. In a race for the coast, the Woodbridge must do everything in its power to stop the Iraqi invaders.
