The main story "The Nazi Ghost" follows Allied naval operations during World War II, in which American forces encounter a German pocket battleship (the Dussel) heading toward England that was thought to be destroyed. After receiving intelligence that the vessel is steaming toward British waters, Allied command dispatches a squadron to intercept and destroy it before it can reach its destination. The operation involves coordinated naval and air attacks, with American PT boats engaging the enemy vessel in a climactic confrontation.
When the U.S.S. Woodfall strikes a Nazi mine off the Norwegian coast in 1942, Captain Lt. Bryan Fay must lead his crew ashore and improvise a daring counterattack against enemy forces in the region—transforming shipwreck survivors into an organized fighting unit. With help from the Norwegian underground, Fay coordinates simultaneous strikes against a German barracks and two destroyers anchored in a nearby fjord, turning a desperate situation into a chance to strike back at the enemy. The crew's escape and journey home hinges on fog, timing, and the arrival of unexpected Allied support.
A young submarine officer assigned to the U.S.S. Raywing battles his own fear during a seventy-day wartime patrol in the North Atlantic, facing enemy U-boats, Arctic ice, and increasingly dangerous combat missions that test whether he has what it takes. Written across eight pages, "70 Days of Doubt" follows a man wrestling with doubt and duty as his submarine hunts Nazi vessels and carries out covert operations in treacherous waters. Will he find his courage, or will the weight of combat prove too much?
When the German pocket battleship Dussel is damaged by American bombers in 1942, her captain orders a coded message to cancel the distress call—and the Allies believe her sunk. A year later, the "Nazi Ghost" returns disguised with false bulkheads, preying on convoys until Captain Mike Reardon of the destroyer Fanworth recognizes the ship's true hull design and pursues her into battle. What follows is a desperate clash between the disguised raider and Allied naval and air forces determined to finish what they started.
In January 1942, the crew of PT 52 witnesses a devastating Japanese air raid on their secret island base near Dutch Borneo—and must hide in plain sight when an enemy destroyer arrives to finish the job. With quick thinking and grit, the skipper and his men sabotage the Japanese ship, salvage supplies, and transform their lone PT boat into a strike force operating deep behind enemy lines. Now they're ready to take the fight back to the Japanese fleet, no matter the odds.
