Description:

Nick Everard, aboard the destroyer Harbinger, escorts a slow convoy through dangerous seas-the haunt of the ferocious U-boat packs, and the convoy is too vulnerable to pass up-at least that's what the Allies hope, for Everard and his ships are bait designed to distract the Germans from the real "Torch" invasion forces.
