The worst journey in the world…
1941
Twin brothers Romulus and Remus Hutchinson have been serving in a range of challenging environments as the naval threat intensifies, but none more so than the icy waters of the Arctic.
Following the trauma of the death of a family member in a Luftwaffe bombing raid on Liverpool, the twins are battling with their grief as they fight to survive in the face of the most ruthless of enemies and the harshest of climates.
Remus has been assigned to SS Earlston, serving on the gruelling Arctic convoys, helping to get vital supplies to the Russians while running the gauntlet of U-Boats and icebergs.
Romulus – who has already been promoted to lieutenant – finds his destroyer, HMS Fury, assigned a role as part of the protective escort for the ill-fated PQ17 convoy.
As the twins’ ships cut through the Arctic seas within sight of each other, Romulus’s fraternal impulse to protect his brother is tested to the limit…
But with their lives on the line, can they both manage to return home in one piece…?
