About the book
On the brink of World War II, a group of submariners prepare themselves for the challenges posed by the impending storm.
In the spring of 1939, four inexperienced Ensigns graduate from Annapolis and the US Navy's Submarine School, ready to serve in the Silent Service. Alistair, the son of privilege and a man of leisure; Fred, the athlete scorned for his abilities; Stan, the farmer's son with lofty ambitions; and Brad, the rebellious child of an admiral. Despite coming from different backgrounds, they form a strong bond as they gear up for the dangerous missions ahead.
Deployed to the harsh waters of the North Atlantic at the covert Argentia base in Newfoundland, Canada, the men undertake a top-secret pre-war task: assisting Britain in its battle against the German U-boats. Armed with outdated equipment, cautious leadership, and rumors of sabotage, they brave the perils of the sea and frigid conditions in search of the elusive enemy beneath the waves.
As the war looms nearer and a sinister German scheme to disrupt the conflict emerges, they realize that their mission is more perilous and crucial than they had ever imagined.
Immersing readers in the untold tales of the Atlantic theater, George Wallace and Don Keith's Argentia Station is an epic story of courage, camaraderie, and selflessness. A compelling read for fans of Tom Clancy and Lee Jackson.
