  The Navy would not allow this book to be printed unless certain changes were made and I had to call it a work of fiction. The time is 1960; the setting; the Mediterranean Sea, a hotbed of the so called Cold War. that was getting even worst in its intensity. It follows the adventures of a crew that flew on board the Navy's first nuclear bomber the P2V-7 Neptune Patrol Bomber. It gives you, the reader, a behind the scenes look at the anti-submarine intelligence gathering, surveillance, and exercises from the perspective of one crew. To this day some of the events never happened and some of the systems used were later banned by the United Nations. There was a 70 million candlepower searchlight as well as the Julie system which was mentioned. With its earthy humor, Deployment gives an idea of their cool bravery as well as revealing some of the events that did occur were mentioned. Times, dates and locations were purposely kept out.

  On the storm-swept coast of Scotland, where the sea claws at the land and the wind carries whispers of danger, a man seeks refuge in a lonely pavilion — and finds himself entangled in a web of love, betrayal, and survival. 
  Robert Louis Stevenson’s A Pavilion on the Links is a masterwork of gothic adventure and romantic suspense — often hailed as one of the earliest modern thrillers. First published in 1880, this gripping tale follows a solitary wanderer who discovers two mysterious occupants hiding from assassins in a desolate seaside house. As the storm rages outside, secrets unfold within, revealing a past that refuses to stay buried. 
  With its haunting atmosphere and emotional intensity, A Pavilion on the Links stands as one of Stevenson’s finest short works — a precursor to Treasure Island and The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde — where human passion and peril meet under the shadow of the Scottish sky. 
  Narrated by John Riddle, this immersive performance brings every gust of wind, every secret glance, and every moment of dread to vivid life.
