NOTES

"A high-impact techno-thriller [that] brings readers into the heart of WWII's Battle of the Atlantic . . . To Kill the Leopard is a winner." -Publishers Weekly The U-boat under Horst Kammerer's command bears a leopard insignia, and Kammerer is indeed a feral hunter as he torpedoes Sully Jordan's oil tanker. The merchant marine escapes with his life-only to encounter Kammerer again a month after Pearl Harbor. After Jordan loses yet another ship to the German captain, he boards a Q-ship-a decoy packed with weapons-with the intention of becoming predator instead of prey . . . "The novel sustains interest from first page to last with an exciting story line that climaxes in an enthralling final duel." -Publishers Weekly "Realistic submarine suspense . . . Leaps from scenes aboard a Nazi U-boat to scenes on freighters sailed by American merchant mariner Sully Jordan to scenes in Lorient, France, where the Resistance works against the Occupation." -Kirkus Reviews
