Publisher Description
It’s August 1944 and as the Allied forces gain momentum in Europe, a group of loyal German expatriates trapped in Brazil hatch a desperate plan to return to the Motherland. Twenty-seven of them crowd aboard a 19th century, three-mast schooner, the Deutschland in a desperate journey to return home. They must cross five thousand miles of rough sea, and slip past both the American and British navies.
A captured U-boat ace, a female American doctor caught up in the nightmare, a veteran gun boat commander and a rear admiral determined to get back into the action. Allies and enemies, men and women, the hunters and the haunted all drawn inescapably into the eye of the storm.
“The waves crash across the decks so wildly you will find yourself sinking into your armchair for protection.” —Philadelphia Bulletin

" I thought from page one it was a good read but the last forty pages were a wonderful race to the end. Well written, informative without boring me, and multiple storylines that converged very nicely at the end. Good Book! "

" This is my own favourite.I have read this many times and it still keeps me interested.A real page turner. "
— Declan, 10/17/2012 -
" I was rather surprised how much I enjoyed this book, and I was quite sad as to the fate in the end for some of the characters. That just shows how much I came to care about them. This was my first Higgins book and I'm willing to read another one. "

" This book was well enough written, but I didn't like the ending of the ending of the story at all. "
— Sarah, 3/21/2011 -
" A struggle with the sea, set at the end of World War 2. Very good pacing, in two stories which join at the end. The two stories are a little disparate for my tastes. "
— Marianne, 1/22/2011 -
" Sad ending to a great story "
— Arjün, 8/21/2010 -
" This is a good read. Kept my interest and stayed up too late to finish it. Not quite "REALLY LIKED" but good. "

" During World War II, a group of German expatriates trapped in Brazil must sail across five thousand miles of tempestuous water to reach their homeland--and face the deadly barricade of American and British military power. "
— Eddy, 5/14/2010 -
" The evocation of a travel in wartime through a big ocean is heartwarming and hopeful for the love of humanity. "
— Felmar, 5/1/2010 -
" a lot of new words "
— Selfishness_is_not_a_crime, 4/12/2010 -
" Interesting neither riveting nor boring. What could have been the cause of the attempted bombing of 10 Downing Street in 1991. "
— Vicky, 1/21/2010 -
" Sean Dillon is at his best in this book "
— J.W., 9/25/2009 -
" Read before Thunder point. My other favorite book. "
— Lia, 10/8/2008 -
" This is based on a real event - the mortar attack on 10 Downing street in 1991. This is a fictional account of how it might have been done. Guess I'm just not that excited about 20 year old terrorist attacks. "
— Nola, 9/13/2008 -
" It was a very nice quick read and very well written. "
