Wife asked for (and received) an additional plot thickener in GHOST POINT, tied to the submarine communications base I've grafted onto the fictional universe of Sunrise County, Maine. Which, for certain of you readers out there, has a certain congruence with the actual Navy transmitter site in Cutler....
(Hi, Ed!)
I spent my time in the Pacific Fleet, not the Atlantic Fleet; and I was a nuke ET, not one of the boys in the radio room. So I never got to swap comms with the folks at Cutler. (And if I had, it probably would have been the sort of Top Secret, Funny Code Word, Burn Before Reading traffic of which I could neither confirm nor deny the presence nor absence thereof.)
Still, I suppose I should thank you for involving the Submarine Force in the bizarre goings-on of your universe. Or, given how badly the good guys in your first two novels got beaten up, maybe I shouldn't...
