USS Seawolf is a naval thriller published in 2000 by best selling author [1] Patrick Robinson.
Desperately, Arnold Morgan, the National Security Advisor, plans a mission to get the crew back, safeguard the sub's secrets, and punish the Chinese.
But after the daring mission, several high-ranking U.S. Navy personnel and several members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff resign when the president prevents his son from facing a court-martial for his part in the loss of the Seawolf.
In an angry fit of revenge, the President uses his considerable influence to have the Seawolf's commander, court-martialed for not being on the bridge at the time of Linus' error.
In a later novel, Robinson continues to build on the conflict between the discredited president and the military by further developing the character of Arnold Morgan.
