Don Winslow of the Navy #3

When a man claiming to be Frank Brown emerges from a prison hospital with no memory of his years with the Nazi Bund, Don Winslow and his partner Red are assigned to guard him—because Brown's recovering memories hold the key to destroying a dangerous enemy plot against American coastal defenses. But the Gestapo has sent trained killers across the Atlantic to silence him, and Winslow must outwit Nazi assassins in a desperate race against time to keep their prize witness alive. A wartime thriller that pits brains and bullets against Hitler's deadliest operatives.

Don Winslow and his pal Red Pennington are sent to scout a Japanese-held island in the Pacific, but their clever ploy to draw out enemy fighters leaves them stranded with empty guns, dwindling fuel, and no way to warn their approaching task force of the deadly trap waiting in the narrow channel below. Outnumbered and captured, the two Navy men find themselves prisoners of the Japanese—but Don and Red aren't done fighting yet. Can they escape their captors and get word back to the fleet before it's too late?

Don Winslow stands in subordinate command of the U.S.S. Alaska as it escorts a vital convoy toward North Africa, but when a freighter is mysteriously torpedoed—with no submarine detected—he begins to suspect sabotage from within. His hunch proves correct when he recognizes one of the survivors as Captain Zakov, a notorious German spy, who's planted a diabolical time-bomb device aboard the battleship itself. Now trapped and racing against time, Don must stop the Nazis' scheme before they can cripple the escort and leave the entire convoy defenseless against the enemy fleet.
