Rent The Iceman: A Novel

Synopsis

An action-packed dramatic military thriller based on true events featuring a daring World War II submarine commander.

In 1942, off the coast of France, there is a United States Navy submarine lurking just outside the borders of a German U-boat minefield. Luckily, Karl Alexander Steiner likes a good challenge. As the sub's lieutenant commander, Steiner calls the shots, though his enigmatic and cold persona alienates him from the crew members who worry that the chances he takes might be too risky.

After sinking three German U-boats, a feat that no other American or British sub had achieved, Steiner is decorated and promoted. With a new fleet boat on Mare Island, Steiner and his crew set out yet again for the mid-Atlantic Ocean. Although this voyage proves even more successful than the last, Steiner's crew fears his dicey tactics--and begins to undermine his command.

With intense action and the terrifying paranoia of submarine warfare, The Iceman is the exciting story of how one daring and determined commander proves the importance of testing luck in World War II naval combat.
