Each chapter looks at a particular incident or theme, including: 'Jerks Berserks' -- newly discovered crew pictures and additional evidence relating to the loss at sea of an American bomber crew. Adrift and helpless, were they murdered by a vengeful German U-boat crew? 'Skipper an' the Kids' -- a B-17 on a whisky run to Scotland vanishes.
