| Summary: | When World War II begins, Max Brekendorf, a proud young German naval officer, fights for his country with courage and pride. With his nation's war machine overrunning Europe, he looks ahead to a bright future with his fiancee, Mareth. Then the war progresses ... German victories begin to fade, and Max, now a U-boat commander, faces the growing strength of the Allies on ever more harrowing missions. Mareth's life becomes increasingly desperate as Berlin is savaged by bombing. And as the Third Reich steadily crumbles, Nazi loyalists begin to terrorize Germany's own armed forces, including Max's crew. Realizing what his country has become, Max faces fateful choices between right and wrong, life and death-and honor and redemption. -- from back cover
