Spring, 1941. France has fallen but the Free French naval forces are in
no mood to surrender. Royal Navy Sub-Lieutenant Harry Gilmour is also
ready for action, despite the horrors of his first taste of submarine
warfare.
When he is appointed as British Navy Liaison Officer aboard the Free
French submarine Radegonde, he finds it anarchic, disorientating--and
very French. Within its claustrophobic confines, suspicion and
misunderstanding are rife.
So when Radegonde is sent on a mission to Martinique, it's vital that
these proud men learn to work together, especially as it seems everyone
from Churchill to de Gaulle--not to mention Hitler--has a stake in the
outcome.
Will Harry be able to navigate these dangerous waters safely and return
with hard-won wisdom, or will old enemies arise to sink him?
