Missing his family and about to face a tough new adventure, Commodore Kemp prepares to set sail once more from Australia.
Along the way he learns that the ship one of his sons is sailing on has been sunk, and fears the worst…
Meanwhile, he and his men are fighting off Nazi war ships, and suspicions are raised when a German sailor seems to recognise one of their own, Seamen Sinker.
In ‘Convoy South’ Kemp faces danger at sea and in the murky waters of international politics as he leads a group of threatened ships from Australia to the United States.
Struggling to keep the men in check and alive, Kemp longs for the comfort of his family and news of his sons.
When their ship is taken over by Nazis, he can see no escape…
Will he ever find out what happened to his son?
Will he and his men make it to America?
And how many of them will die along the way?
'Convoy South' is the next thrilling instalment in the John Mason Kemp series.
