Small changes - screwing an extra knot out of a warship's engines or a petty functionary insisting a family sell a wedding clock before they can get unemployment benefit - small changes which can nevertheless lead to a different world war than the one we know explored from the viewpoint of Nationalist Spaniards, committed Nazis, British parliamentarians and Royal Naval officers to name but a few in this stunning fictional alternative history.

From Gibraltar to Crete; the tangled lives of naval officers and their men, Pulver and Stebbings, of marines like O'Flynn, Maori warriors like Lieutenant Ngarimu, the healer 'Ronnie' Prasad and many more, following the orders of their political masters, intent on stabilising the newly-liberated Spain and smashing the German war machine on land, on seas patrolled by HMS Hood and her sisters, and in skies overflown by the RAF and the Luftwaffe. This is war. But not as the history books tell it.

Two missions are afoot. The Asturian,Sergeant Massu must seek out a princess in hiding who may hold the key to bringing down the Italian Fascists while Sergeant Dodd and Georgiou are determined to kill the German General Bräuer. On the grander stage the way must be cleared for an allied invasion of Greece, the enemy must at all costs believe that the target is really Sicily and the master of deception remains Commandante O'Neill. Meanwhile a refitted HMS Hood is preparing to sail again...and this time towards the rising sun...and a shell-shocked Bombardier Milligan is in acute need of assistance.
