Hostile Waters (ISBN 0312966121) is a 1997 nonfiction book by Peter Huchthausen, Igor Kurdin and R. Alan White that describes the 1986 loss of the Soviet submarine K-219 off Bermuda while captained by Igor Britanov.

With a foreword by Tom Clancy, it begins with a note to the reader: The ordeal of the K-219 took place at the very height of the cold war.

Operations involving American submarines are simply not discussed by the United States Navy.

Acts taken by, conversations held between, even the private thoughts of the crew of the K-219 are taken directly from their testimony or from the submarine's log.

The paperback copy of the book featured black-and-white photos of the sub, the various men who served as the crew together with the authors.
