Publisher's Summary

"In war novels authors typically feature ships such as destroyers, battleships, or aircraft carriers, but not support vessels. By focusing on the support vessels, Parotti provides listeners with a different view of the two wars and leaves them with an appreciation for the crafts' significance along with the men who took care of these damaged ships."—National Maritime Historical Society

Assigned to US Navy Rescue Tug, the ATR-3X, not long after the German surrender in North Africa, Ensign Hal Goff and four other officers must support the Allied invasion of Sicily and Italy, shepherding navy ships to and from the bitter fighting. With the Allied advance finally stopped cold along the Winter Line beneath Monte Cassino, Hal and his ship become part of the grueling invasion of Anzio and the seemingly endless stalemate across Anzio's bloody beaches.

Phillip Parotti's thrilling novel treats his listeners to gripping World War II naval action in the Mediterranean Sea.
