In November 1941 the Australian light cruiser HMAS Sydney, with a
crew of 645, disappeared off the coast of Western Australia. When
German sailors picked up from lifeboats claimed that their ship,
the Kormoran, a lightly merchant raider, had sunk the pride of the
Australian navy theories sprang up to explain the loss. Had a
second German warship been involved, or a Japanese submarine, even
though Japan was not yet in the war? Based on the German coded
accounts and interviews with German survivors, this book pieces
together what really happened in the desperate fight between the
two ships, whose wrecks were finally located 10,000 feet down on
the floor of the Indian Ocean in March 2008.
