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. First, a tiny apology to anywhere unfamiliar with my Timeline 10/27/63 books in which the Cold War turned disastrously HOT over Cuba and the swinging sixties did not happen. This is as much a personal open letter to my readers as it is a blurb for a new book. But then as every story-teller will attest; why on earth would one be conventional when one has an opportunity to be contrary? THE AUTUMN OF EMPIRE is the first of ...

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 WALL is the eighth of thirteen books in this series which will be released at monthly intervals between 27th October 2023 and 27th October 2024. It is May 1962. A train of events which has been slowly coalescing since October 1961 in the confrontation at Checkpoint Charlie in Berlin is beginning to play out. In the USSR, emboldened by apparent Western weakness and irresolution, the Kremlin, shaken by a sudden purge of ...

The piano was a 1912 Bechstein Model A Grand presented in a walnut, patterned case that was originally situated in the drawing room of the Schloss Marienhalle for some years, before it was transported to the what was at the time, the dining room of the Lake House. There it had resided in all its tonal splendour for some ten years before I set eyes upon it, little knowing that it would play such a pivotal part in my life. I look at it today and the memories flood back. It becomes harder to put them in their proper order, chronologies become muddled with the passing of the years, confused by ...

It is January 1967, over four years have passed since the cataclysm of October 1962. Over four long years down an altered timeline in which the swinging sixties never happened. To the West the Soviet Union still seems hell-bent on confrontation, in Washington DC a President whom only months before was the victor of terrible civil war finds himself at the nexus of a blizzard of controversy, while in Europe, British and Free French troops seemed locked in an unwinnable war with the Chelyabinsk Kremlin’s proxies in the south. And then, as a partisan Congress seeks to re-fight old battles ...

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. January 1962 and the new year dawns with the West and the Soviet Union locked in rhetorical sabre-rattling, with both side’s leaders deaf to – or perhaps, more accurately – in denial about the other’s problems. From sunny California to windswept Lincolnshire the shadow of war is ever-present, the leader of the free world exhorts his people to build bomb shelters, Nikita Khrushchev periodically threatens to rain ...

It is the late summer of 1966. This is a FOOTBALL book about the World Cup of 1966 set in the altered timeline of 10/27/62 in which the swinging sixties never happened because the Russians and the Americans blew up the world when the Cuban Missiles Crisis went wrong on Saturday 27th October 1962. When the representatives of sixty-nine national governing bodies of Association Football gathered in Rome a few days ahead of the start of the Football Tournament of the 1960 Summer Olympic Games – the normal governance and regulatory minutiae apart – there was only one real matter which ...

There is a theory that the way the ‘time’ works, is that the past, literally, never goes away. Might what we call ‘ghosts’ simply be the faint echoes of moments from the past. We are here now, possibly, our ancestors are still where they were, in their own time, as real as you or I, except separated from us by…time itself. Have you ever felt the whisper of ancestral voices, a tingling of the spine, or just an ‘odd’ feeling standing, or walking through a ruined castle, or across a ritual landscape so ancient as to be alien? When we claim a spiritual, or an ethnological, ...

‘The Painter’ is one woman’s remembrance of the days of her youth spent in Bielefeld under the bombs of the Allied Air Forces in the final months of the war in Europe. After writing ‘Until the Night’ I had been looking for a way to start telling the other stories of the bombing war in Europe. ‘Until the Night’ was about the men in the bombers over Germany in the winter of 1943-44, ‘The Painter’ is about the experience of ordinary Germans under the bombs in the last winter of the war. ‘The Painter’ is the first of a series of companion books to ‘Until the Night’ in ...

Our affable, driven, conflicted hero’s journey through nearly 20 stormy years, where it all went wrong and perhaps, and how redemption came looking for him in an unlikely, lethal guise when actually, he was through with the world. One should be careful for what one wishes for, but with Harry Waters, you never quite know what you are going to get because…neither does he, and after a while, that might just be what grows on one!

Hawke first captained Yorkshire in the Championship in 1883. He was also the man who sacked Bobby Peel, the greatest left-arm bowler of his era, and infamously declaimed "Pray God, no professional shall ever captain England", sentiments that very nearly damned him forever. A man of contradictions, strong convictions, more often than not his own worst enemy, this cricketing biography goes behind the myth of the man looking to paint a picture of one of cricket’s great men.

Sir Stanley Jackson captained Harrow School, Cambridge University, and England in a golden epoch of English cricket.

Cricket on the Beach is book one of the alternative history series Timeline 10/27/62 - Australia. Timeline 10/27/62 is set in a world in which the Cuban Missiles Crisis went wrong and the swinging '60s never happened. The thermonuclear madness might not have reached as far south as Australasia, but in the weeks and months after the Cuban Missiles War, many more people might have succumbed to the "On the Beach" syndrome had it not been for the distraction of a unique sporting odyssey.

A Kelper’s Tale is one young woman’s story, told in her own words; of a drably idyllic childhood at the ends of the earth, of invasion, exile, repatriation and a growing awareness that ultimately, the first and last casualty of war is truth. Over four years have passed since the bloody events of 1964. What will the new year of 1969 bring for the peoples of the United Kingdom, the Argentine Republic, the occupiers of the Falklands Archipelago and the once British administered dependencies in the South Atlantic?

Back in 1964, in a world still struggling to come to terms with the aftermath of the October War, the Argentine invasion of the Falkland Islands had been a faraway thing that had happened to a couple of thousand kelpers living on a few islands in the South Atlantic, 8,000 miles from England, about which the British people in their post-October War travails, knew little and cared less.
