Introducing The Laconia Incident

My latest book is here!

The Laconia Incident is the true story of Korvettenkapitan Werner Hartenstein, captain of the WWII German submarine U-156.  It is Hartenstein’s boat that attacks and sinks the HMT Laconia on September 12, 1942. The subsequent, unprecedented, actions taken by him, his crew, and the German U-Boat Command, after the actual torpedoing and sinking of the Laconia, make a truly amazing tale.  It’s a story of how civility and mercy survive, even amidst the savagery and brutality of all-out war.  It also shows how even the best-intentioned efforts can be foiled by stubborn adherence to well-established preconceptions, even in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary.

The Laconia Incident is available here for $2.99 as an e-book for pre-order on Amazon through March 30, 2020.  After March 30, it will be available at regular price as an e-book and in paperback on Amazon and all online book outlets.
