Title: To Risks Unknown by Douglas Reeman
Summary: 1943: Now there is to be no more retreat for Britain and her Allies. At last the war is to be carried into enemy territory. From captured bases and makeshift harbours in North Africa, The Royal Navy's Special Force is to be the probe and the spearhead of the advance. To this unorthodox war come H. M. S. Thistle and her commanding officer, John Crispin. Both veterans, she from the Atlantic, he from the trauma of seeing his last command and her company brutally destroyed. Soon they are fighting amongst remote Adriatic islands, helping the partisans and guerrillas with whom they have little in common, except an overwhelming common hatred of the enemy who has attacked and destroyed their countries. When it comes to the crunch, ship and crew have to be welded into a single fighting unit. And it has to be done, not in training, but on active duty.
