In the tradition of Shadow Divers, the story of the courageous men who dived on the last sunken U-Boat off the Eastern Seaboard.

On April 16, 1944, the tanker SS Pan Pennsylvania was torpedoed and sunk by the U-550. In return the sub was sent to the bottom by three destroyer escorts that were guarding the convoy. For more than 60 years the location of the U-boat's wreck eluded divers. In 2012 a team found it. This was the last undiscovered U-boat in diveable waters off the Eastern Seaboard of the United States, more than 300 feet below the surface, nearly 100 feet deeper than the sub in Shadow Divers. This is the story of their 20-year quest to find the "holy grail" of deep sea diving and the tenacious efforts to dive on this treacherous wreck.

This makes a great story for anyone with an interest in naval history, deep sea diving, or just have a sense of adventure. The author was very thorough, provided excellent perspectives on the events, and kept the story flowing in a way that keeps the reader engaged.
