Beskrivelse
Set during World War II, Greyhound follows Captain Krause as he commands a US destroyer escorting a crucial convoy across the perilous North Atlantic. Facing relentless German U-boat attacks, Krause must navigate a deadly game of survival.
A gripping naval thriller about courage and leadership in the face of overwhelming odds.
Originally published as The Good Shepherd, this classic wartime tale by C. S. Forester captures the tension and bravery of 1942, just as America enters the conflict. The story centers on Greyhound, a convoy of thirty-seven Allied ships, making its way through icy, submarine-infested waters.
Captain Krause takes command of his first US destroyer and must protect the convoy from German wolf packs during a relentless forty-eight-hour battle. Though the mission seems destined for failure, Krause’s determination and grit offer a glimmer of hope amid the chaos.
This compelling novel is a must-read for fans of naval warfare and the acclaimed author behind the Hornblower series.
