The classic nuclear war story first published in 1958 and made into a major film less than a year after publication. Nuclear war erupts and lasts less than 30 days - and no-one even knows how it started. The last operating U.S. submarine Scorpion makes its way to Australia ahead of the fall-out creeping down the globe from the Northern hemisphere. The Australian Navy picks up Morse code signals coming from Seattle - could there be survivors? The Scorpion, with Australian officer Lieutenant-Commander Peter Holmes aboard is sent to investigate while Australians hope and prepare for the possible end of life on earth.
