Descriptions of the events in WWII that led to the loss of Royal Navy Submarines in actions where the submarines were sunk, usually by scuttling, with the captains and crew taken prisoner. Included are two variations - in one case the submarine was captured and in another the captain was killed in action.
When the nuclear-powered submarine - Tiger Shark - sets out to investigate a baffling series of naval disasters near the Arctic Circle, its fearless crew quickly find themselves besieged by electrical storms, under attack from an unidentified floating saucer, and in the grip of hairy tentacles in this superb science-fiction potboiler from the golden age of Sci-Fi!
