His boats delivered a crushing blow to the Nazi German squadron then occupying Narvik, the famous Arctic iron-ore port. Only moments later, a salvo of German shells smashed the bridge of HMS Hardy, killing Warburton-Lee and several of his officers. His last signal to his fellow men was without fear: 'Keep on engaging the enemy!' With his death, the Royal Navy had lost one of its youngest and most talented officers: a truly human hero. Death at Dawn is the epic retelling of the Battle of Narvik fought over the course of three days, during which ten German destroyers were sunk. Utilising first-hand accounts, including letters from Warburton-Lee to his wife Elizabeth, Alf Jacobsen crafts the events leading up to and during the conflict into a gripping tale of human courage at the edges of the earth.
