He derided the Geneva Convention and the pusillanimity that sometimes delayed action against the enemy for diplomatic reasons. In his view war was a rough and bloody business in which those who stopped at nothing would be victorious. This is the exciting story of Widmark's greatest adventure, the organization and execution of a private cutting-out operation designed - regardless of any consequences - to strike a single telling blow for his own side. Widmark plans to seize and sail the 8,000-tonne German vessel, Hagenfels, from the neutral East African port of Lourenco Marques. All these events and fantastic developments thereafter, are brought to life by the author's knowledge of sea-going and the power of narrative that brought him worldwide success.
