Synopsis
The bestselling novel from the master storyteller of the sea.Douglas Reeman's 30th naval thriller 1941 To the residents and defence forces of the Crown Colony of Hong Kong, the war in Europe remains remote.

Lieutenant-Commander Esmond Brooke, captain of HMS Serpent and a veteran of the cruel Atlantic, sees all too clearly the folly and incompetence of Hong Kong's colonial administration.
