Although the 8th novel in the Everard series of naval adventures,which started with Nick as a somewhat bloody-minded midshipman at Jutland in 1916,this is a stand alone novel.Although fictional,each
story's setting is historically and technically accurate - this one is based on a weakly-defended convoy homeward-bound
from Freetown,which crossed all the
'Torch' invasion routes and drew the U-boats after it.See also rja2206 for another,earlier title from same series.
