Amazon.com description: Product Description: Darting back and forth across the icy North Atlantic, HMS Compass Rose played a deadly cat-and-mouse game with packs of German U-boats lying in wait beneath the ocean waves. Packed with tension and vivid descriptions of agonizing U-boat hunts, this tale of the most bitter and chilling campaign of World War II tells of ordinary men who had to master their own fears before they could face a brutal menace -- one which would strike without warning from the deep.
