Böcker i U-Boat-serien

1941: the second year of the Blitzkreig. While occupied Europe writes beneath the Nazi jackboot, Hitler's U-boats dominate the Atlantic trade routes. Kapitanleutnant Konrad Bergman, commander of the UB-44, already responsible for the destruction of the pocket battleship Koenig and all her crew, prowls the enemy convoy routes and finds himself locked in a deadly game of wits with Gestapo informers who suspect his loyalty. Hunted through the seas by the British, hounded by his enemies ashore, Bergman faces destruction when he and the crew of UB-44 are trapped in a doomed submarine at the bottom of the ocean, with a man who was sworn to kill him.

During the terrible Battle of the Atlantic, Hitler's U-Boats had become the scourge of the ocean. Of all of his U-Boat aces, none as more brilliant or more feared than Kapitanleutnant Konrad Bergman.But while Bergman had been prowling the Atlantic convoy routes, another deadly conflict was raging under burning Eastern skies. When word came that Japan and invented a weapon that could swing the pendulum of the war for Germany, it was Bergman who was sent to slip through the American net and wrest the secret of the Tokyo Torpedo from Japan-single-handed!

The war was entering its final phase and the Allied net was closing ever more tightly round the remnants of the Reich. Now the hunter became the hunted and, as each man was forced to admit to himself that the end was inevitable, it was equally inevitable that each should look to his own salvation. Korvettenkapitan Bergman knew very well that Oberleutenant Karl Zetterling had something to hide but at a time when suspicion was every man's shadow it was vital to move with the utmost caution. Why did Bergman not want Zetterling to carry out the job he had been sent to do? And what was Bergman himself trying to hide?With the skill which those who have read Action Atlantic and Tokyo Torpedo will have come to expect of him, Edwyn Gray brilliantly recreates the atmosphere of the deadly battle beneath the waves which Korvettenkapitan Konrad Bergman has waged for four years with unrivaled success. But his last command was to be the most dramatic of all.

Mutiny or murder. These were the stark choices that confronted Kapitan-Leutnant Konrad Bergman. To go against the discipline and training that had been instilled in him from youth and disobey an order. Or to carry out the Fuehrer's command and destroy his own comrades in an act of cold-blooded premeditated murder.As commander of a U-boat, Bergman had always greedily accepted his orders, lusting after each of his kills with the relentless energies of a primitive predator. Now the harsh realities of war were proving to be somewhat different from the romantic dreams of his youth. But it was too late to change his destiny now.
