The USS Ulysses, a 688 Attack Class atomic submarine patrolling in the South Atlantic, encounters five survivors of a shipwreck clinging to a lifeboat. Although their orders prohibit them from taking passengers on board, Commander Derek decides to rescue them. But the shipwreck is a hoax and the survivors are a band of terrorists. On board the Ulysses, the terrorists take control of the submarine and its nuclear missiles. Destination: Washington, D.C. Purpose: Nuclear blackmail and terrorism. A billion dollars in gold bullion or Washington D.C. becomes ground zero in a nuclear attack. As the highest halls of government scramble in terror, one man embarks on a mission to help save his country. James Allen Carter, Navy Data Analyst, expert in submarines, secretly scuba dives onto the Ulysses. Quickly and covertly, he assembles an anti-terrorist team using the combined skills of the submarine crew members. Hiding onboard the Ulysses, Carter begins playing a deadly game of cat and mouse with the terrorists. But the terrorists fight back with added force. (official distributor synopsis)
