A real-life thriller told with dramatic intensity and pace, a tale of an obsession, of courage, deep-sea dangers and death. It’s the story of two men and their six year quest to find a German u-boat wreck off the coast of America (New Jersey). A sea/adventure yarn which is somehow made more exciting because it’s true.
A true adventure in which two amateur scuba divers risk everything to solve a great historical mystery - and make history themselves

No historian, expert or government had a clue as to which U-boat the men had found, and the official records all agreed that there simply could not be a sunken U-boat and crew there.Over the next six years, an elite team of divers embarked on a quest of increasingly perilous diving and painstaking archival research to solve the mystery.
