Book excerpt: The heroic image of Churchill leading the Allies to victory in World War II is turned on its head when Hitler gains air supremacy, to inflict an ignominious defeat on his sworn enemy. Shocked and humiliated, Churchill is forced to seek American assistance to drive the Germans out. Can Churchill convince the Americans to intervene? Will Churchill overcome formidable opposition and be able to return home victorious? Indeed, will he return at all? In this gripping new thriller, fact and fiction are welded together, stretching the imagination into a surprising outcome. If you have ever asked yourself what would have happened if the Battle of Britain had been lost, the unfolding of events and dramatic climax will provide a fascinating possibility. It will leave you pondering what could have been, long after you finish the book.
