An allied agent and a brilliant scientist who is vital to the success of the top secret Manhattan Project is on the run in Italy. It's up to Harding to take Trigger deep into enemy waters to ensure the agent’s safety – no matter what the cost...

Will Trigger and her crew see it through to the end before the strain gets too much?
