About this listen

Welcome to the Timeline 10/27/62 prequel series COUNTDOWN TO WAR starting in October 1961 and concluding when the world goes mad during the last weekend in October 1962.

THE GREAT STORM is the sixth of thirteen books in this series which will be released at monthly intervals between 27th October 2023 and 27th October 2024.

It is March 1962. A once in a century storm sweep up the East Coast of America and far inland. In England two friends yearn to go to sea again, the one to escape the other to mend the fences he has so careless broken. In Washington DC other conundrums are beginning to play out and the whims of the Cuban dictator, Fidel Castro threaten to open a Havana-Moscow can of worms. The tickertape has been cleared from the streets of Manhattan, nearly four thousand tons of it to celebrate John Glenn’s brief orbital journey but never more was the Space Race a proxy for a real war.

And the sleepwalk to war begins, imperceptibly to gather new pace. Vulcans of Bomber Command play practice war games; the B-52s of Strategic Air Command fly their doomsday failsafe missions over the Arctic, and the countdown to war continues…

The countdown to war has reached seven minutes to midnight…
