In the heat of World War II, a damaged ship with an injured captain fights to stay afloat in Aal Christiansen's Submarine Killer.
I don't know who Christiansen is, but his writing has the realism to make me think he could have been a veteran himself (this was written in the 60s). Whether he was or not, he knows how to write combat action, and plenty of it.
This was another Spitfire book I acquired, a pocket digest-sized edition--with illustrations--apparently for the young adult market.
But I found this to be completely readable as an adult, and I consumed it quickly on a camping trip.
