Publisher's Summary

Based on true events.

1942. The war at sea is being lost. One percent of all naval personnel are being referred to as psychiatric casualties. The British Admiralty introduces the Stone Frigate approach.

Three men fight for their country in the Arctic convoys of World War II, then for their sanity and dignity, labelled as cowards and subjected to experimental psychiatry at an isolated facility set up to by the British Admiralty to recycle men back into battle.

To the Navy, they are faulty parts, not constitutionally suited to operate at sea. To the public, they are poltroons, malingerers, and psychiatric cases.

The places in this story are real, but everyone who played a part in what happened is now dead. It is safe to tell what really happened. What was important then, nobody cares about now.

True courage is facing danger when you are afraid, surviving in the circus of war.
