Author: Douglas Reeman
Description:
25 years ago HMS Terrapin was part of a crack hunter/killer group in the Battle of the Atlantic. Now she is working out her comission in the Gulf of Thailand. To Lieutenant-Commander Standish, the frigate seems to mark the end of his hopes of a career in the Navy. Then a new captain arrives, a man driven by an old-fashioned, almost obsessive patriotism. And under his stubborn leadership Standish and the crew discover a long forgotten unity of purpose.
