Greyhound
Film tie-in originally published as The Good Shepherd
Set in the early days of WWII, Greyhound is the story of an international convoy of 37 Allied ships, led by captain Ernest Krause in his first command of a US destroyer. The convoy ploughs through icy, submarine-infested North Atlantic seas while hotly pursued by wolf packs of Nazi U-boats.
Faced with 48 hours of desperate peril, Captain Krause's hopeless mission is doomed to fail. But armed with extraordinary courage and grit, hope may just be on the horizon.
The official tie-in to the upcoming Hollywood blockbuster starring Tom Hanks as Captain Krause. Will be released by Sony on 5th April 2019 in the UK and internationally.
