The Lusitania Plot — Raymond Hitchcock

On the afternoon of 7th May 1915 the ocean liner Lusitania rounded the Old Head of Kinsale in southern Ireland, on her return journey from New York to Liverpool, where a German U-boat lay in wait. The Lusitania was torpedoed and sank in under twenty minutes with the loss of over 1,100 lives - 124 of the victims being Americans. But what if two submarines had been planning an ambush - and one of them British? Based around the real World War I atrocity, Raymond Hitchcock's gripping conspiracy thriller poses an outrageous plot to sacrifice the Lusitania in order to bring America into World War I. First published in 1979 under the title Attack The Lusitania!
