Then they spot a disabled ship which the crew has abandoned, manage to climb aboard where they find food and warm clothing. However, a U-boat finds them and sends three crew members to capture them but in the attempt the U-Boat flees leaving the three German sailors behind.
The ship changes hands a couple of times between the Germans and the survivors with everyone hoping to make it to shore to claim salvage and make a fortune. However, not all is happy as Raven faces a crew member who is waiting for an opportunity to kill him. The two women fight over him and the German officer uses him.
