Alors que la Guerre Froide entre les Etats-Unis et l'U.R.S.S. est à son paroxysme, les Russes tentent de construire leur premier sous-marin nucléaire opérationnel, le K-19. Le chantier de ce "petit bijou", n'avance guère, ce qui e plaît pas aux dirigeants russes. Le capitaine responsable du projet, Mikhail Polenin, jugé trop laxiste, est remplacé par l'impitoyable Capitaine Alexei Vostrikov. Enfin terminé, le K-19 enteprend son voyage inaugural dans l'océan Atlantique. Mais le 4 juillet, l'alarme retentit dans le sous-marin. Une fuite dans le système de refroidissement du réacteur nucléaire risque de provoquer une explosion. Et si le réacteur explose, non seulement tout l'équipage sera réduit à néant, mais les Etats-Unis risquent de croire à une offensive nucléaire de la part de l'U.R.S.S. La course contre la montre est entamée et Vostrikov va tout faire pour sauver son équipage de la mort et empêcher qu'une nouvelle guerre n'éclate. Lui et ses hommes vont, en quelques heures, découvrir la vraie valeur des mots "devoir" et "sacrifice".

Drawn from a wealth of untold stories, this is a leadership book that illustrates how Adm. Hyman Rickover was the innovative driving force behind America's nuclear submarine navy and how he revolutionized naval warfare in the latter half of the twentieth century. Rickover's single-minded focus on safety protected Americans from nuclear contamination, a record that contrasts with the dozens of nuclear reactor accidents suffered by the Russians. While Rickover has been the subject of numerous biographies, little has been written about his unique management practices; however, the author had the good fortune to know and to serve under Rickover during much of his thirty-year career in the Navy and is singularly qualified to explain the management and leadership principles behind Rickover's success.

A new technologically superior Soviet nuclear sub, the Red October, is heading the United States coast under the command of Captain Ramius. The American government thinks Ramius is planning to attack. A lone CIA analyst has a different idea: he thinks Ramius is planning to defect, but he has only a few hours to find him and prove it. At the same time, the entire Russian naval and air commands are trying to find Ramius too
