It’s December 1943. The intrepid German battleship Scharnhorst sails through the freezing cold waters of the Barents’ Sea, hoping to intercept a British convoy heading for the Soviet Union. The convoy’s been surveilled by the U-Boats, but what the Germans don’t know is that the British codebreakers are onto them, and that the Royal Navy is well-aware of their intentions and laying an ambush. This is the story of how the mighty Scharnhorst met its demise.
