SYNOPSIS
BETWEEN THE HAMMER AND THE ANVIL … IN 1944, the Allies have delivered a stunning blow to Hitler’s Western Front. In the Pacific, Admiral Raymond A. Spruance’s Fifth Fleet is poised to deliver a knock-out punch to the Japanese Navy – and begin a new war for the occupied islands. But in the center of this world-spanning drama, a lone Japanese submarine, the I-57, headed for the U-boat pens in Lorient, France, is on a mission of a very different kind. And on board is Todd Ingram, a prisoner of war and Captive of Fate.IS THE ULTIMATE DECEPTION
Navy brass knows Ingram is on the
I-57, but can’t reveal its ability to break Japanese code. So Ingram’s
close friend, Captain Jerry Landa, is put in charge of a covert “NEPTUNE
STRATEGY” to save Ingram. But Landa can’t help himself as he falls for
Ingram’s wife Helen while the top brass demands to know where the Japanese
sub is going, who is in command – and what is astounding, what the
I-57’s ultimate mission really
is … It’s only until the I-57 makes a secret rendezvous with her sistership, the I-49, in Madagascar’s Antongila Bay, that Ingram learns this is not just a simple technical exchange mission between Germany and Japan. The I-57's mission has far more personal, and deadlier ramifications. Worst of all, Ingram discovers Hajime plans to get rid of him before they reach Lorient.
