Sonar Menace on Maple Lane

In wartime 1941, navy sonar picks up a colossal, unknown leviathan stirring off the Atlantic coast. A brash marine biologist and a newsreel cameraman mount an undersea quest aboard a cramped submersible—only to chase the creature straight into idyllic Maple Lane, where white-picket fences and civics meetings give way to tidal horrors. As civil-defense wardens enforce blackouts and housewives swap whispered rumors by kerosene lamp, the town must choose courage or collapse. Equal parts scientific adventure and suburban panic, this pulpy thriller blends sonar suspense with backyard terror in a nation on edge.
