Just as promised here is the "must read" I've been eluding to in other thread. Shadow Divers is a very good book. The true story of two American ship wreck divers who discover a WWII U-boat sunk in the Atlantic just off the coast of New Jersey. The twist is there is no historical record explaining the subs presence in American waters or how it got there. The story details how these divers risked everything including their lives to discover the truth and in fact change history!

A great read. This book has a bit of mystery, science, history, tragedy and suspense and it's non-fiction!

You really ought to check it out.

As a member of Sharkhunters, I've followed tgis story from the begginning. Its a great read. Anotehr sub book which has been reissued recently is On the Bottom by Edward Ellsberg on the sinking and salvage of the US Sub s-51 in 1925.

“Don’t move,” his voice whispered, “Trust me.”

Hope felt a shiver of anticipation run through her body at Matthew’s words.

“I do,” was her only reply as she surrendered control of the seduction to him.

George looked around and said, “We heard noises through the ceiling so we thought we’d come up and see you.”

“Yes,” added Fred, “funny thing is, though, in addition to the loud thumps we could have sworn we heard two different sets of footsteps.”

“Damn,” Hope thought, “we forgot to charm the floor!”
