Synopsis
The perilous, obsessive world of the deep-sea diver is revealed in this true account of a six-year quest begun in 1991 to recover items from and discover the identity of a World War II U-boat sunk off the coast of New Jersey, a place where the history books said no such ship should be. As a team of divers explore the twisted wreck underwater and conduct painstaking research on land, lives and marriages will be sacrificed to get to the bottom of the mystery. SHADOW DIVERS was the nonfiction choice for ABA's 2005 Book Sense Book of the Year Award.
