Needle on the Haystack

Lt. Eric Matthews must help close down a drug ring big enough to make the Mafia gag, a gang that is not just selling heroin, but cutting the drug with poison and killing someone weekly. For the first time in his career he must serve undercover as an enlisted man—his advancement in rank requires such experience. He is assigned to the USS Hestek (nicknamed the “Old Haystack”) to track a suspected drug user back to his supplier and then arrest him, even though the two become good friends.
