Description
Winter 1943. The Royal Navy sends three teenagers on their first mission at sea during the Second World War. Their ship is part of an Arctic Convoy sailing to Russia to deliver supplies to the Soviets. The convoys face treacherous waters, navigating between the Arctic ice pack and German bases on the Norwegian coast. Faced with enemy attacks from both air and sea, as well as life-threatening cold and storms, the boys must survive their perilous journey. With the fate of the mission hanging in the balance, will they make it home again? This gripping naval adventure is inspired by the incredible history of the Second World War Arctic convoys.
