In the seventh volume of the Submarine Outlaw series, Alfred takes his
homemade submarine into the Southern Ocean to thwart the actions of the
Japanese whalers. In Australia, he is mistakenly accused of sabotaging
an oil tanker, forcing him to escape to Tasmania. There he meets up with
Merwin Hughes, an eccentric environmentalist, and together they travel
south. They are followed along the way by a friendly blue whale and her
calf, and a bond is established. Soon after, they encounter a tanker on
its way to illegally refuel the whalers' ships. When Captain Paul Watson
arrives aboard the Sea Shepherd Society's flagship, the Steve Irwin, to
stop the whalers, Al must first try to save the mother and calf even as
he helps Watson fight off the whalers. Al learns that the war to save
the planet is being waged by dedicated individuals, each contributing in
his or her own way, and that every action, large or small, matters
greatly.
