Anotace knihy

July 1945: The USS Indianapolis carries the components of the atomic bomb across the Pacific, delivers them to Tinian Island, and sails on toward the Philippines.

She never arrives.

Torpedoed in the dead of night, the heavy cruiser sinks in just twelve minutes. Radioman Jack Harlan is thrown into the black Philippine Sea with 1,196 other men. What follows is four days and five nights of pure hell: burning sun, oil-choked water, circling sharks, and the creeping madness of salt water in the mind. Jack's only anchor is keeping his best friend Tommy alive as men around them begin to slip under the waves.

Back in San Francisco, Eve counts the days since his last letter, keeping his jacket on the chair where he left it, refusing to let her fear take shape.

Indy is a novel about what men carry into war: a classified mission no one can name, an unasked proposal in a velvet box, and the crushing weight of the friends who don't come home. Above all, it is a love story written in desperate letters, late-night card games, and the long silence between a ship going down and a telegram finally arriving.

Some men survived the water. None survived it unchanged.
