On August 12th 2000, a Russian submarine with 118 men on board sank in the Barents Sea. Multiple ships nearby at the time reported hearing two separate explosions, yet a search for the submarine and its inhabitants did not begin for over six hours. Over the course of the next 4 days, the Russian Navy made multiple attempts to reach the ship to no avail. On the fifth day, Norwegian divers finally managed to open a hatch and begin the much delayed search for survivors. Robert Moore’s A Time to Die is the true account of this tragic accident.
