Description

Twelve Seconds to Live by Douglas Reeman is a gripping historical thriller that transports readers back to the terrifying life of British seamen during World War Two. The story follows three men - Lieutenant-Commander David Masters, Lieutenant Chris Foley, and Sub-Lieutenant Michael Lincoln - as they face the deadly challenge of mine defusal in the Royal Navy's Special Countermeasures. Hauntingly, these brave men are often forced to confront their own mortality, with the mine serving as an impartial killer that can strike at any moment. As they navigate the treacherous world of naval warfare, they must also contend with personal demons and the weight of expectation from their peers. This gripping tale from a master storyteller of the sea is a heart-pounding pacey read that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
