CAPT Beach also wrote the novel Run Silent, Run Deep, and if my flaky memory serves correctly, at least one other novel. Not all of his books are currently in print.

He wrote two sequels: Dust on the Sea, set in WW2, and Cold is the Sea, set during the early 1960s and the early days of the Polaris force.

No, your memory is not flaky.

...And I think Beach commanded USS Triton in the first submerged global circumnavigation, circa 1960?
