I just finished the non fiction book "Shadow Divers" and really enjoyed it.

Although I don't consider myself really into military history OR deep wreck diving, it was an amazing story of the courage and tragedy that surrounded the investigation of a German submarine found off the coast of New Jersey. From the divers to the story of the crew aboard the sub, it is a great journey.

I heard a rumor that Peter Weir is attached to direct a motion picture based on the story.

Read it 5 years ago one of my favorites. If you liked that one you'll love descent into darkness (pearl harbor)

I also read it years ago, and really dug it. Been tempted to read it again, but there's that time factor...Now sounds like I'll have to check out Decent Into Darkness.
