'They were four hundred yards clear to seaward now, hidden in the night. Walker got the idea, and a search-light, stupidly lighting on one of the enemy destroyers and holding her there as if for identification, clinched his thought.
"Skipper!" he jerked urgently. "Put the sub. on the wheel and let me get down to the six-pounder!"
'He had to stop the enemy getting away scot-free from this NIGHT ENCOUNTER! '(Publication summary)

30y The Coxswain London Melbourne : Horwitz , 1960 Z1257321 1960 single work novel war literature adventure In every battle Wind Rode had come out on top. Weapons, whether aircraft cannon or submarine torpedo or destroyer guns, were aimed and fired by men. The destroyer's men had proved superior in the handling of theirs. Now the train of successes had been broken. They had six big guns and multiplicity of other weapons: they should have got those Jap aircraft. As it was a lucky shot from the Oerlikon saved them from disaster. It was not seamanship or training: simply a problem of morale. For the coxswain. - Publisher's blurb, back cover Farlig farvann Oslo : Magasinet for Alle , 1963

85y Abandon Ship! Sydney : Horwitz , 1963 Z1259204 1963 single work novel war literature adventure 'There were only seconds left, yet in that time Captain Bentley's mind encompassed several possibilities. The torpedo might be a dud. there might not have been time for the vanes of the firing pistol to screw right back against the detonator. The torpedo could have been dropped at too acute an angle, it might not regain the correct depth in time. The target ship might slip its doom. The possibilities were abruptly and irrevocably negatived in a gigantic WHAM of sound. 'Wind Rode' reeled as if she had been clubbed...8 Liberty ships. Though not large, the convoy was invaluable - and Captain Peter Bentley's five Fleet destroyers were going to have to fight to the death to protect these merchantmen from the savage Jap attack...' - From frontmatter and back cover Jagere i kamp Oslo : Magasinet for Alle , 1966

109y The Deserter Sydney : Horwitz , 1965 Z1260435 1965 single work novel war literature adventure Aboard destroyer Wind Rode the five men had a mess of their own. This was surprising. Surprising also was the fact that none of the ship's company resented the five's privileged seclusion. They were men apart in more ways than one and the dangers they faced were not dangers known to men who fought on the surface of the ocean. They were frogmen, chosen to carry a load of destruction through their alien, underwater world to the heart of the Japanese defences at Halmahera. The success of an invasion depended on their courage. - back cover Frykt Oslo : Magasinet for Alle , 1969
