Great Read
Against All Enemies is a propulsive page-turner from the explosive start to the satisfying conclusion. Embracing the perspectives of multiple players and theaters of war, the story centers on US Navy Captain Bill Wilkins, in his first command of the destroyer USS Nicholas in her maiden deployment in the South China Sea. As Bill finds loyal allies in unexpected quarters and is forced to make monumental life-or-death decisions, he grapples with loss and perseveres with courage. Thomas Wing has created an immersive and suspenseful tale of fiction that is all the more chilling because every sentence of it rings true.
