"A high-impact techno-thriller [that] brings readers into the heart of WWII's Battle of the Atlantic . . . To Kill the Leopard is a winner." -Publishers Weekly

The U-boat under Horst Kammerer's command bears a leopard insignia, and Kammerer is indeed a feral hunter as he torpedoes Sully Jordan's oil tanker. The merchant marine escapes with his life-only to encounter Kammerer again a month after Pearl Harbor. After Jordan loses yet another ship to the German captain, he boards a Q-ship-a decoy packed with weapons-with the intention of becoming predator instead of prey . . .

"The novel sustains interest from first page to last with an exciting story line that climaxes in an enthralling final duel." -Publishers Weekly

"Realistic submarine suspense . . . Leaps from scenes aboard a Nazi U-boat to scenes on freighters sailed by American merchant mariner Sully Jordan to scenes in Lorient, France, where the Resistance works against the Occupation." -Kirkus Reviewsmehr

Autor

Theodore Taylor was an American author of more than fifty fiction and nonfiction books for young adult and adult readers. During World War II, he first served as a cadet-AB seaman on a gasoline tanker, then became a naval officer in the Pacific Theater. Taylor published his first book, The Magnificent Mitscher, in 1955. His novel The Cay won eleven literary awards, including the Lewis Carroll Shelf Award, and was adapted into a film in 1974. In 2006, Taylor passed away in his beloved "house in the woods" in Laguna Beach, California. He was surrounded by his family, his books, and years of wonderful memories.
