Nathan Talbot participated in the 1936 Olympics, as captain of the
Tyrian Tempest, representing the United Kingdom in the 6-Meter
Class Yachting races. The competition was fierce and even though
Talbot was a skilled sailor, he was disappointed with only winning
the Bronze Medal, outmaneuvered by the German sailing master Werner
Grossman. However, there were other darker issues plaguing the
young Englishman once he returned from Nazi Germany. Something
sordid and dangerous was simmering underneath all the pomp and
circumstance of the new Fatherland. Less than four years later,
Nathan's concerns were realized, as Germany plunged the world into
yet another war. This time, Talbot took command of a Motor Torpedo
Boat (MTB) and this time set sail for combat in the English
Channel. Nathan was soon to discover that his old nemesis, Werner
Grossman, had been given command of an entire E-boat flotilla
operating in the same area. Then one night, while Talbot was
sneaking about Occupied France, he literally ran into 19-year-old
Elise Dube and it was love at first sight. While taking daring
risks to keep the flames of romance burning, Talbot was also
assigned to British Intelligence. would come in handy for more
covert reasons. There was just one problem. It also became obvious
that Herr Grossman had also been captivated by Elise Dube's charms
and planned to seduce her. Failing that, the German officer had
every intention of forcing himself upon her. While the war at sea
was often decided with lightning speed and brutal results, World
War Two became incredibly personal for Nathan Talbot, who would
stop at nothing to rescue his true love.
