Description

Set against the tense backdrop of World War I’s naval war, two eager young volunteers, Frank and Jack, find themselves drawn into a baffling mystery: a hundred German U‑boats have vanished from the North Atlantic. Their curiosity lands them in a secret meeting with Lord Hastings, a naval commander who hints at a hidden threat and a covert operation that could turn the tide of the conflict. As the boys pledge their silence, they are thrust back into active service, ready to uncover the truth beneath the waves.

The story follows the duo as they train, prepare their craft, and set out on a daring patrol that blends youthful bravery with the gritty realities of wartime life at sea. Along the way they encounter coded messages, unexpected allies, and the looming presence of enemy submarines that seem to disappear without a trace. Listeners will be swept up in the suspenseful chase, feeling the salty air and the palpable tension of a world on the brink, all while rooting for these determined boys to solve a secret that could reshape the war.
