Amid the chaos of WWII, a Coast Guard Captain is conscripted into battling a ruthless outlaw in this thriller from the New York Times–bestselling author.
As World War II rages in the Pacific, Coast Guard Captain Josh Thurlow is sent in to assess the status of the campaign. He's there at the disastrous invasion of Tarawa, as the US Navy begins throwing marines at island after island. One of the few survivors, Josh's life is saved by a young Irish nun. But Sister Mary Kathleen is not what she seems.
