It takes a special sort of courage to serve in midget submarines, and Lieutenant David Seaton, commanding officer of XE16, needs no reminding of the perils involved. The little X-craft with their four-man crews have been used against heavy enemy surface units and important harbour installations. But in 1944, with the Allies poised for an invasion through France, a new and more hazardous role is given to Seaton's flotilla.

Not his best work
Listened to the whole thing because WWII is interesting to me. I read all I can on it from historical accounts, to textbooks, biographies of key figures, and historical fictions.
This one was underwhelming The writing style seemed a little unpolished, but that was compounded two fold by the narrator’s somewhat simpering voice depicting the various male character’s dialog.
That definitely annoyed me, but hey, that’s just me, You may love it and so I’d say, give it a try.

Strangest view of Naziism ever. Strangest family ever.
See title of this review. Unless you’re an apologist for those Nazis who were “just following orders”, avoid this novel.
