Produktbeschreibung

A young merchant marine embarks on a deadly voyage across the Atlantic in this WWII naval thriller.

Summer 1940. Merchant Marine Andy Holt is second mate on the SS Barranquilla, sailing from the Clyde to Cuba. With a pregnant sweetheart waiting at home, he hopes to make it back in time to get married and welcome their child into the world. But odds are against any individual ship getting over the pond and back.

There have been heavy losses off Norway and Dunkirk. Now the vital priority is for escorting destroyers to counter the invasion threat. Though the outward journey may be perilous, it's the homeward trip where the real danger lies: U-boats prefer their victims deep-laden and full of cargo.

Autorenporträt

Alexander Fullerton was a bestselling author of British naval fiction, whose writing career spanned over fifty years. He served with distinction as gunnery and torpedo officer of HM Submarine Seadog during World War Two. He was a fluent Russian speaker, and after the war served in Germany as the Royal Navy liaison with the Red Army.

His first novel, Surface!, was written on the backs of old cargo manifests. It sold over 500,000 copies and needed five reprints in six weeks. Fullerton is perhaps best known though for his nine-volume Nicholas Everard series, which was translated into many languages, winning him fans all round the world. His fiftieth novel, Submariner, was published in 2008, the year of his death.
