Dawn Patrol

What does it really take to be a hero? 

Mark Bowman has been a Royal Navy man since he was 12 years old. Siegfried Herzschlag is a school teacher in a tiny town near Dusseldorf. 

Everything changes for Mark and Siegfreid in the middle of 1914, when the Kaiser declares war on the British Empire. A British Empire that never stopped growing. An Empire that surrounds Germany and wants to absorb them, as they’ve done with nearly every other nation on earth. 

Thrust into the turbulent days of the Great War, Siegfried and Mark find themselves with untested crews on patrol in the waters of the North Sea. Mark is the XO aboard an aging steam-powered battleship. Siegfried has taken command of his country’s latest weapon - the submarine. 

As the sun rises over the North Sea, the submarine and the battleship meet in combat, as Mark and Siegfried fight for their homeland, for their honour and for their own survival.
