Beschreibung
DUEL AT SEAFrom the moment the radar indicated a German sub, the captain of the destroyer Hecate knew he would achieve his life's ambition-a duel to the death in deserted waters between his ship and an enemy submarine.Below the choppy sea sped the U-121 commanded by Kapitan von Stolberg, an efficient, brutal sailor who also welcomed a fight to the finish-but for a different reason. His submarine was entrusted with a mission that could prove catastrophic to the Allied war effort. Nothing-least of all a British destroyer-must stand in his way.Plotting his strategy like a deadly game of chess, the destroyer captain doggedly tailed the elusive sub. Depth charge answered torpedo, cannon matched gun and finally man faced man in a climactic battle for supremacy at sea.THE ENEMY BELOW was also made into the Academy Award winning 1957 movie, starring Robert Mitchum and Curt Jurgens, and produced and directed by Dick Powell.THE ENEMY BELOW..."e;Simply terrific!"e;-Christian HeraldTHE ENEMY BELOW..."e;Commander Rayner has spun a grand yarn. The battle he has described is a thriller, a cross between a game of chess and a hunt to the death. He tells it well, with mounting suspense, much clever manipulation of the possibilities of naval action and with a slam-bang climax which ought to be terrific in the forthcoming movie."e;-The New York TimesTHE ENEMY BELOW..."e;A thumping good narrative of primordial war at sea told from an unusual point of view..."e;-The New York Times Book Review
