« Un frisson par minute. Vous n’avez pas besoin d’être un mordu de la Première Guerre mondiale pour savourer celui-ci. » Un capitaine audacieux. Un navire plein d’armes. Et un complot sinistre qui pourrait paralyser la Grande-Bretagne. Au cœur de la Première Guerre mondiale, un plan sournois conçu par la marine allemande a conduit le capitaine de vaisseau Karl Spindler à se lancer dans une mission périlleuse et secrète. Sa tâche : livrer des armes allemandes à l’Irlande et déclencher ce qui allait devenir le soulèvement de Pâques. Parti de Norvège avec un navire déguisé, Spindler a entrepris une mission périlleuse avec un petit équipage et une cale pleine d’explosifs. S’il réussissait, il pourrait déclencher une menace qui paralyserait l’effort de guerre britannique. Mais s’il échouait, un prisonnier de guerre serait son destin... Découvrez une histoire vraie palpitante des profondeurs de la Première Guerre mondiale. Raconté avec des détails palpitants qui donnent vie aux histoires moins connues de la guerre, Mission to Ireland offre un frisson par minute. Vous n’avez pas besoin d’être un passionné d’histoire pour profiter de celui-ci.
