Pedal to the Medal: A Military Thriller Short

Commander Kurt Kins loves a challenge. But this might be the one he and his crew can’t beat. By 2039, the United States is a year and a half into World War III. Submarine meets submarine beneath the waves, and one out of every three American subs deployed isn’t coming home. Commander Kurt Kins and USS Darter, however, seem to have a magic touch—they’ve been among the best of the best from the start.

Kins loves action and he’s never backed down from a challenge. Faced with clever Russian enemies who are out to make their nation a superpower once more, he knows he has his work cut out for him. But that’s all right with Commander Kins. He’s out to be the top American submariner in the war…or die trying.

Pedal to the Medal takes place concurrently with the closing chapters of The War No One Wanted and is part of the series War of the Submarine.
