Product Description:
Number-one bestselling author Iris Johansen teams up with Edgar Award winner Roy Johansen and the result is an explosive, tour-de-force thriller. . . . It was the assignment of a lifetime. . . . Brilliant marine architect Hannah Bryson has been given the job of a lifetime. A U.S. maritime museum has just acquired the decommissioned Soviet submarine Silent Thunder for public exhibition. It’s Hannah’s job to make sure that every single inch of the legendary nuclear attack sub is safe for the thousands of visitors anticipated. Enlisting the aid of her brother, Connor, they examine the enormous vessel and delve into its long---and lethal---history. But is it really a trap? In the course of their investigation, Connor discovers a mysterious message behind one of the ship’s panels. But before he can figure out what it means, there’s a deadly assault on Silent Thunder. . . . Though the U.S. government tries to warn Hannah away, she’ll stop at nothing to find the ruthless mastermind behind her brother’s death. Even if it means joining forces with a mysterious man who may be even more dangerous than the enemy she has sworn to bring down. As Hannah finds herself in the crossfire of an epic standoff, her only hope for survival is to unravel the sub’s explosive secret. But someone’s willing to kill to make sure Silent Thunder stays silent. . . . Brisk, exhilarating, and filled with authentic details, Silent Thunder is what you get when you team the biggest name in suspense with the stunning plot twists of an Edgar Award--winning author. Get ready for a page-turning thrill ride!

This is a very good read...it's a little different than Iris Johansen's regular books since she wrote it with her son. But, it's a very good easy read. I highly recommend it.

Silent Thunder Iris Johansen has captured the attention of multiple family members from the first time I passed on one of her books. This book is no exception. From the first page until the last, your focus is entirely on the intrigue unfolding in front of you. It was hard to put down and you didn't want it to end.
Rating:  -
Unnatural dialogue, a completely unrealistic plot (a nuclear-powered submarine is supposedly being prepared for public exhibit by a maritime museum), and comic-book-like characters.
Having been tempted to stop reading several times in the first few pages, I finally quit when, on page 35, the implausible brother accuses his implausible marine-architect sister of having developed a "father complex" focused on the last captain of the sub--just from a photograph of the dead captain.
