Geoffrey Jenkis

The southwest coast of Africa is known to sailors as the 'Skeleton Coast', due to the number of shipwrecks found there. It is not only the most dangerous coast in the world, but also the most desolate - and potentially the richest.

During the war, fate granted Lieutenant Peace, R.N. the key to this forbidden place. He was informed, under conditions of absolute secrecy, of a deadly game of hide-and-seek with a new type of submarine so far ahead of its time that even the German High Command did not trust it. Years later, still haunted by his memories, he is drawn there and once again challenges the elements that for centuries have kept the Skeleton Coast free from human intrusion.
