Don Winslow of the Navy #27

Don Winslow faces the consequences of his own insubordination when a clash with his captain sends him jumping ship in a fit of rage—only to be approached by someone offering a chance at revenge against the Navy itself. What begins as a dangerous flirtation with betrayal becomes something far more sinister when Winslow discovers he's been drawn into a Nazi spy ring operating right under America's nose. With his wits and nerve, Winslow must find a way to turn the tables on enemies who won't hesitate to silence him.

Don Winslow and Red Pennington are sent to solve a baffling military mystery: American task forces keep getting destroyed before they can even reach a Japanese-held island in the Pacific, despite air superiority and no enemy vessels in sight. When Don dives to investigate the waters around the island, he discovers the shocking truth—and hatches a clever plan using obsolete ships to neutralize the threat and clear the way for invasion. It's a tale of resourceful problem-solving under wartime pressure, with the kind of tactical ingenuity that made Don Winslow essential to the Navy's toughest assignments.

Don Winslow and Red Pennington board the gambling ship of the ruthless Smiling Jack Farrell to investigate the murder of a Coast Guard captain's nephew—a young man who owed Farrell a substantial gambling debt. With Farrell's vessel anchored outside the twelve-mile limit and beyond legal jurisdiction, the two must work fast to find the murder weapon and gather proof before the ship's crew discovers their true identities. What they uncover aboard the floating casino will force them into a desperate race against time and a ship full of hired muscle.
