July, 1943. As the grim years of the Second World War go by, the destruction of allied shipping mounts. Out of the terrible loss of men and ships, the escort carrier is born. At twenty-six, fighter pilot Tim Rowan, RNVR, is already a veteran of many campaigns. Now he joins the escort carrier, Growler, a posting which takes him first to the bitter waters of the Arctic and then later to the Indian Ocean and the new terror of the Japanese Kamikaze.
