Deep Gold

by Jay Amberg

1942. The British ship Edinburgh agrees to ferry tons of Russian gold to the Americans as payment in war-debt but a Nazi torpedo sends her beneath the waves of the Arctic Ocean. Fifty years later, the three governments agree to raise the treasure and a crew comprised of British, American, Russian and Germans head once more to her watery grave. As the gold is brought up and battleships circle closer, conspiracies begin to fly and relations fall apart. Who will end up with 200 million in gold?
