In the tense years of the Cold War, U.S. Navy destroyer USS Mullinnix patrols the stormy waters of the North Sea as NATO prepares to test a revolutionary new sonar device. But a Soviet Union spy, hiding as a member of the crew, will do anything to steal, or neutralize, the NATO technology before the tests begin. Moscow cannot allow the device to succeed. From the Old Town pubs of Kingston Upon Hull, England to the darkened streets of Oslo, someone would kill to protect their nation’s security in the North Sea. In the tradition of Cold War espionage and naval thrillers, From Mullinnix With Love delivers a tense, atmospheric story of betrayal, technology, and survival at sea. Where the most dangerous enemy may already be aboard. In the vein of C. S. Forester (African Quenn) and Patrick Robinson, Wood delivers an espionage thriller with double agents, CIA versus KGB, and the Cold War pressure aboard the enclosed space of a US Navy destroyer.

Raw, unfiltered, and carrying the weight of silence finally broken." "Wood doesn't write like some distant historian, he writes like a sailor who lived it, breathed it and still carries it." "Not a book, just pure fascinating history." "Raw, salty, and full of heart. Written by someone who's been there, not some distant historian." "These books feel like hanging out in a sailor's memory. Full of sailor slang, dark humor, and real talk, very authentic." "You see the fear, duty, and camaraderie of sailors caught in uncertain times. The authenticity of Wood's writing makes these books about an experience worth having."
