This WWI thriller is “a particularly rousing brand of naval fiction . . . brimming with action, suspense, and authentic historical detail” (Booklist).

Churchill called it the finest feat of arms of the Great War . . .

As dawn breaks on St George’s Day, 1918, the Royal Navy launch a desperate assault on the Belgian submarine base, scuttling multiple blockships to trap the U-boats in the harbour.

In sixty minutes of fire and fury, eight Victoria Crosses are won and hundreds of British sailors sink to their deaths. But will Nick be one of them?

An extraordinary portrait of violence and valour, perfect for fans of C.S. Forester and Douglas Reeman.
