Summaries
From a publisher's flyer:
Lee Crane has been attacked and kidnapped. When he's found, his memory of the eighteen months he has served on Seaview are gone, as is the deeper relationship he has shared with Admiral Nelson. The plot weaves a complex tapestry of past and present before speeding to a thrilling climax..
From a publisher's flyer:
Crane shifted his butt on the desk corner and stretched, breathing a small sigh. "Well, that's another long tour almost over. We'll soon be home."
"Ah, home." Nelson echoed the pleasant anticipation in Lee's voice. "That'll be nice. Anything you specially want to do?"
"You."
Nelson felt a slight flush rise to his checks at the brazen light in Lee's eyes as he was fixed by his captain's gaze.
It all seems like plain sailing as the submarine Seaview nears home - but Captain Crane and Admiral Nelson's amorous plans for shore leave are shortlived. A few hours after docking, Lee vanishes.
Has he been kidnapped by enemy agents and brainwashed for Seaview's defence secrets? When Nelson finds him, days later in a hospital hundreds of miles away, he cannot tell. Crane has lost his memory, not only of what happened to him since Seaview arrived at Santa Barbara - but also of the preceding eighteen months.
To Lee, the Admiral is a man he hero-worshipped as a young lieutenant, not even a close friend. He cannot recall his release from the navy and transfer to Seaview. Nor does he remember that the gay instincts he put on hold to further his career were awakened when he fell in love with Nelson.
Chip Morton is a shadow from the past, Sheriff Farlow is a prospect for the future, and Harriman Nelson? He is always at Lee's side, worried and frustrated, waiting and hoping for his lover to return. The plot weaves a complex tapestry of past and present before speeding to a thrilling climax.
Fan Comments
I may not be big in the fandom, but this story is wonderful. Crane is kidnapped, as a result has amnesia and loses years of memories, including the fact that he is the captain of the Seaview and Admiral Nelson's lover. [1]
