In autumn 1942 the pride of the Italian Navy is lying at anchor in Genoa harbour. It is the mighty aircraft-carrier Aquila, capable of tipping the whole balance of the Mediterranean war. As the Allied invasion armada steams across the Atlantic towards north-west Africa, this huge ship must at all costs be prevented from sailing. It is up to Commander Hetherington to ensure she stays put - whether above the sea or beneath it. And he has only three men to depend on... fighting on different sides. Thus begins a gripping story of adventure, self-sacrifice and bloody battle which is as spell-binding as the real-life episodes on which it is based.
