Storm Warning [Paperback] Higgins, Jack

A U-boat commander, a Brazilian freighter, and a storm brewing in the South Atlantic — Jack Higgins drops you into 1944 with a ticking clock and no safe harbor. The cargo is human: Jewish refugees desperate to escape Nazi Europe. The threat is real: a German submarine that could send them all to the bottom. Higgins builds tension like few can, layering moral ambiguity over wartime duty until you're not sure who to root for. The sea is as much a character as anyone aboard, and the storm isn't just weather — it's the collapse of certainty. This is Higgins in classic form: lean prose, high stakes, and characters forced to choose between orders and conscience. Perfect for fans of Alistair MacLean or anyone who wants their thrillers soaked in salt spray and impossible decisions.
