- Synopsis
- An epic Second World War adventure from the author of the Nicholas Everard naval thrillers, who &“recreates [life at sea] with authenticity and vigor&” (Historical Novel Society). As captain of the submarine Ursa, Lieutenant Mike Nicholson&’s mission is to disrupt the flow of war supplies to Rommel&’s Afrika Korps. Although Ursa is small, slow and often out-gunned, she succeeds, on her seventeenth Mediterranean cruise, in sinking a German tank-transporter. That triumph makes Mike top of the league—he has now sunk more tonnage than any of his contemporaries. Promotion to Lieutenant-Commander, at the age of twenty-eight, is on the cards. All he has to do is adhere to two rules: stay alive, and keep his nose clean . . . Submariner is a gripping Second World War naval thriller that will appeal to fans of Douglas Reeman and Jack Higgins. Praise for the writing of Alexander Fullerton &“His action passages are superb, and he never puts a period foot wrong.&” —The Observer &“You don&’t read a novel by Alexander Fullerton. You LIVE it.&” —South Wales Echo &“The research is unimpeachable and the scent of battle quite overpowering.&” —The Sunday Times
