A Royal Navy commander is tasked with stopping a German convoy, in this thrilling novel of love, courage, and honor in the midst of World War II.
Harry Scott has served honorably in the Royal Navy since 1939—including at Dunkirk, where he evacuated hundreds of soldiers before his own boat was blown up and he lost many of his crew. 
By 1942, the tide of the war is flowing against the Allies. A worried Churchill needs to block a fleet of German reinforcements and knows his large ships would never survive. But a force of smaller vessels might just have a chance—if their voyage is kept from the enemy until it’s too late and the group is led by the right man . . .
Now Harry, with the help of officer Annie Lenton, has been tasked to bring this new flotilla together and train the officers and crew. The two gradually develop a respect and a love for each other, a love that could make or destroy them both, as a vicious sea battle looms . . .
