About This Book

A squad of young naval servicemen on shore leave in England are drawn back into wartime duty when a mysterious wireless call summons their destroyer; the story traces their return to sea, tense patrols and chases, intelligence puzzles, encounters with enemy submarines and a large submersible, convoy protection, and a climactic rescue. Action sequences alternate with shipboard routines and boyish camaraderie, while wireless signals, mistaken messages, and coastal dangers sustain suspense and emphasize teamwork, duty, and resourcefulness under hostile conditions.
