About This Book

A Boy Scout patrol joins a submarine voyage to search a seabed for clues connected to earlier incidents, learning the vessel's machinery and diving techniques along the way. Tensions with adult authority and rival groups complicate the mission as the boys descend to the ocean floor, where mechanical failures, poisonous fumes, and underwater chases create perilous situations. Individual scouts make discoveries and take bold risks, and the narrative resolves through quick thinking, teamwork, and daring rescues that end one episode while suggesting further adventures.
