The Seventh Carrier
Author: Peter Albano
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781534714946
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
It is the first day of December, 1983. Ted 'Trigger' Ross is a very long way from his past as a World War II hero, as forty years later he travels aboard the steamer Sparta, through the Bering Sea. Then, as if from nowhere come Japanese aircraft, Zeros, World War II vintage - and nearly four decades after that war ended, they are heading straight for Sparta. As they undertake their strafing run, destroying the blood-soaked Sparta and killing most of her crew, Trigger Ross is hurled out of calm normality and back into the horrors of war. Because for the crew of the carrier Yonaga, World War II has not yet ended. The crew of the carrier Yonaga are samurai, and that means following orders, even to the death. And the crew of the Yonaga have orders to attack Pearl Harbor. Orders that have never been revoked, and which must therefore be carried out. As Ross, a prisoner on board the Yonaga, finds himself carried back towards his homeland, he draws upon all his inner strength and understanding - of Japanese culture, and of warfare - in a desperate bid to avert disaster. Meanwhile the American authorities, baffled by repeated reports of ships attacked by Zeros, search for answers. Brent Ross, Trigger's son, believes his father lost at sea. Having heard tales of Japanese 'holdouts' many years after World War II, Brent suspects that something similar may be afoot. Brent is right. But how long will it take his superiors to realise that? As the Americans seek answers, and Brent seeks support for his theory, the Yonaga travels on, relentlessly, getting ever closer to Pearl Harbor. The original attack on Pearl Harbor was made by six Japanese carriers: now the seventh is on her way. And the Americans, for whom World War II ended almost forty years previously, are completely unprepared for any attack. Will the Yonaga reach her destination? And if she does - what then? Peter Albano (1922-2006) was a US writer who served in the US Navy 1942-1946; he is known mainly for the nine-book Seventh Carrier sequence of military adventures staring the World War Two Japanese aircraft carrier Yonaga.
