In the early months of World War II, Max Brekendorf, a proud young Naval officer, strives to fight for his country with honour and courage. With the seemingly unstoppable German war machine overrunning Europe and poised to secure its place among the great world powers, he looks ahead to a bright future with his fiancee, Mareth. But as the war progresses, Max's future becomes less and less certain. After years of serving with the surface fleet and then as a U-Boat commander, Max faces ever more harrowing missions around the world through the shifting landscapes of a complex and devastating war. On the home front life for Mareth has become increasingly dangerous and desperate. As the Third Reich steadily crumbles, Nazi loyalists begin to infiltrate Max's crew and turn their terror on Germany's own armed forces. Max's mission, once so clear-cut, begins to cloud. Recognizing what his homeland has become, Max is forced to make a choice between his own sense of morality and his duty to the Reich. With a stirring, rarely seen glimpse of the German home front during WWII and its evocation of the drama and terror of war at sea, An Honorable German is a suspense-filled story of adventure, love and loss and of honor and redemption.
