A high-stakes post-war naval thriller set in 1946, this book follows RAF veteran and covert Department 7 operative Jack Falcon, reluctantly dragged back into the shadows when Allied merchant ships begin vanishing off the Irish coast — each sighting linked to an impossibly still-active U-boat flying a skull-and-crossbones and a gleaming gold periscope.

At first dismissed as superstition and ghost stories, it becomes clear this is no relic of the war — but a post-war operation, orchestrated by a vanished Kriegsmarine admiral believed dead in Trondheim in May ’45. His network is still alive, fuelled by missing Nazi gold, executing precision supply exchanges through Irish fishing harbours, Blackwall docks, and the ruins of Hamburg, all to finance and arm a fully modernized rogue submarine fleet hidden in the Norwegian fjords.

Falcon is paired with Dr Evelyn Drake, a genius Bletchley Park code-breaker, and Billy “Sparks” Devlin, ex-Navy engineer and irreverent demolitions man. The tone balances atmospheric espionage with grounded naval detail: fog-shrouded SOS calls, wet-timber Irish harbours, black-market Hamburg, limpet mines ticking against warships, river assassins wearing orderly whites.

This is post-war, not wartime — a world trying to demobilize while the enemy refuses to stop fighting.
