War without rules…
This is the story of the men who lived and died in the blistering hell of the South Pacific, the men who fought tirelessly in the Second World War, the men on both sides who fought the Battle of the Bismarck Sea.
This battle is lesser known in history, but was just as important as the rest. Fought between New Guinea and New Britain, in the middle of the Bismarck, a devastating blow was delivered to Japanese plans for conquest in the South Pacific.
Filled with blasting action, this is a novel of desperate men locked in a savage battle for mastery of the world’s greatest ocean.
This was a war without rules or mercy, and one that ended in utter annihilation…
