A heart-pounding First World War naval thriller featuring the rebel Captain Cochrane Smith.
1917: After three years, the outcome of the Great War is poised on a knife-edge. David Cochrane Smith, captain of the armoured cruiser HMS Thunder, is patrolling off the coast of South America. But then he attacks and sinks the Gerda, a neutral ship in a neutral port.
Smith already has a reputation as a maverick and now he faces professional ruin. But he is certain he was right, that the *Gerda *was one of two ships masquerading under neutral flags that are in fact supply vessels for the mighty German warships, *Kondor *and Wolf.
Only an outdated cruiser and a young captain prepared to break all the rules stand in their way…
***Thunder At Dawn ***is an edge-of-the-seat naval adventure that combines thrilling story-telling with meticulous research, perfect for readers of Alexander Fullerton, Julian Stockwin and Philip McCutchan.
