In "The Secret Killer," an American submarine crew is sent to navigate a treacherous rocky passage near a secret harbor in a covert Cold War operation. Captain Wollson leads the men through a dangerous strait in fog-covered waters, and a torpedo—specially designed for this type of mission—is fired at their target. Chief Doug Wallace observes the operation while the submarine must navigate the shallow, rocky terrain to complete their mission, with the crew working against a precise timetable to avoid detection.

Contains 4 stories
Sunken Fortress
10 pp · War

When American submarine forces discover a covert enemy base hidden in underwater caves near the North Atlantic's Grand Banks, an underwater demolition team is tasked with tracking Soviet submarine movements and planting surveillance devices—until a Soviet frogman spots their camouflage net and forces a desperate confrontation in the depths. With the fate of the free world hanging in the balance, three men must prevent word of their discovery from reaching enemy command, no matter the cost.

The Secret Killer!
8 pp · War

Aboard the U.S.S. Wyndon, electronics officer George discovers a troubling mystery: the sister sub U.S.S. Hawthorne has gone silent for days after reporting an unidentified, impossibly fast submarine in her area. Sent north to investigate and prepare for battle, the Wyndon's crew soon picks up a contact of their own—and what unfolds is a tense underwater duel where split-second decisions and cutting-edge electronics will determine who lives and who doesn't.

False Friend
4 pp · War

Lieutenant Andy Vaccaro and the crew of his submarine rendezvous in the North Sea with a Norwegian resistance fighter named Riis Wollson, who claims to know the location of Nazi warships ripe for the taking—but Chief Doug Wallace's instincts tell him something is dangerously wrong. When Wollson's cover begins to crack, the crew discovers they've been herded into a deadly trap, and must fight their way out against enemy aircraft and destroyers. A sharp-eyed chief mate and a ready distress signal may be all that stand between the sub and the ocean floor.

Lest We Forget: Theodore Roosevelt
1 pp · Biography, History

Theodore Roosevelt overcame a sickly childhood to become a formidable outdoorsman and military leader, serving as a police commissioner, assistant secretary of the navy, and prolific writer before joining the cavalry during the Spanish-American War. When the Rough Riders charged San Juan Hill in 1898, Roosevelt led the hardened plainsmen he'd recruited, proving himself a living legend who transformed personal hardship into patriotic courage. His remarkable journey stands as a powerful reminder that determination and perseverance can overcome even the greatest obstacles.
