Это длинный и правдивый рассказ об океане и двух кораблях. Этот рассказ описывает долгое и яростное сражение. Здесь пойдет речь о двух кораблях потому, что один был потоплен и его пришлось заменить другим. Здесь пойдет речь о двухстах пятидесяти моряках. И наконец, самое главное - это правдивый рассказ. Место действия - океан, Северная Атлантика. Карта поведает вам, как он выглядит, но не откроет, что с ним могут сделать люди и что сам он может сделать с людьми... Сначала о корабле. Первом из двух. О том, который обречен. Это корвет. Новый тип конвойных кораблей. Опытный образец, созданный для того, чтобы хоть как-то встретить отчаянную ситуацию, возникшую на горизонте. Время действия - ноябрь 1939 года. Название корабля - Его Королевского Величества корвет «Компас Роуз». И, наконец, о людях. Некоторые, как и сам этот прекрасный корабль, обречены. Герои этого рассказа — мужчины и их корабли. И единственный злодей среди них — жестокое море.
