Bridger's Arctic convoy plunges into the shadow war
of Soviet espionage
The battle-scarred, World War II troopship James F. Bridger is tasked with an all but impossible mission: deliver vital war supplies to Soviet Union Allies across the frozen, blood-soaked Arctic. To reach Murmansk, her crew must survive relentless German torpedo bombers, brutal anti-submarine skirmishes, and the crushing grip of polar ice. Ships vanish beneath the waves, men die by the dozens, but Bridger's battered convoy claws its way through hell to reach Soviet shores.
For Commander Jonas Pratt, Bridger's steely executive officer, the real nightmare is just beginning. In Murmansk, he's greeted by the enigmatic Celia Dunn from the American Embassy. She has learned the Soviet NKVD has marked Pratt as a prime target: a man with secrets, leverage, and just enough vulnerability. The Americans see a rare chance to turn the tables on Stalin's spies-if they can survive.
When Soviet agents seize Bridger and take her crew hostage, Pratt must elude captors in a deadly race through the heart of Stalin's Russia. With Celia's loyalties as mysterious as her past, and NKVD operatives closing in, Pratt must outwit a regime where betrayal is the currency and survival is never guaranteed.
War at sea is only the beginning. In Stalin's empire, the real battle is for your soul.
The brutality of the Arctic convoys. The treachery of Stalin's empire of espionage. Cole combines the two in a fast-paced and fascinating tale of World War II. Buckle in. - Lt. Charles Horn, USN (Ret.)
-A gripping, fast-paced introduction to a hero-and the mighty Bridger-you'll be reading more about. Lt. Charles Horn, USN (Ret.)
