Synopsis
Aboard the oil tanker "S. S. Galveston", American merchant mariner Sully Jordan has joined the dash across the North Atlantic to aid a besieged Great Britain. Beneath the surface of the chilly waters lurks a seemingly invincible U-boat, captained by Horst Kammerer--known as "the Leopard." In an unforgettable clash of stealth and treachery, these two like-hearted men face off in a duel to the death.

Publisher's Note
Merchant mariner Sully Jordan never dreamed that he would be actively involved in U.S. naval defense against Hitler's U-boat onslaught in World War II. Not until his tankers are torpedoed twice by the same relentless, stealthy submarine with snarling leopards painted on its conning tower. What ensues is one man's gritty battle against an invincible U-boat. As he sets the scene, Theodore Taylor's action-packed narrative cuts swiftly between the German and Allied camps, skillfully delineating each side's complex tactics in tracking the enemy's actions. Fascinating details of the British use of subtle psychological warfare, the French Resistance's intricate espionage network, American expediency, and Germany's advanced technology and single-minded determination to win the war take us gradually to the climactic denouement. Taylor's portraits of two equally patriotic men - Sully Jordan and his German counterpart, Horst Kammerer, the captain of the furtive submarine - provide a unique, periscopic vision of the highly charged and driven war.

Industry Reviews
"'To Kill the Leopard' is quite simply a great book. It rings with the intensity and authenticity that only comes from personal inspection at zero altitude. I couldn't put it down."
Book Jacket - Gary Paulsen

"Taylor never falters in driving his story forward to its climax on the high seas...the nautical equivalent of the shoot-out in 'High Noon'...a big finish."
Los Angeles Times - Jonathan Kirsch

"Realistic submarine suspense...You are really there."
Kirsch
