The third in the ‘Red Gambit’ series, Stalemate deals with the events of the Third World War, up to 25th October 1945. Relating the experiences from both sides of the divide, and from all levels. ‘Stalemate’ deals with the man in the trench, through the pilot in his fighter, through to the Generals who direct the war from their command centres. ‘Stalemate’ brings the first stages of WW3 to a climax on the Alsatian plain, a sleepy town in Holland, and an insignificant town in Germany, whose name is now synonymous with death on a grand scale.

The sixth in a series of books that cover World War Three, from July 1945 through to its close in September 1947.

1946 has moved out of its suspended state, and violence has blossomed once again.

In the Pacific, the war reaches a peak of horror previously undreamt of in the history of man.

The severe European winter is a fading memory, but its after effects still resonate, particularly with the Red Army, deprived of the chattels of war. The fighting drags on, with little to show for the plans and devices of the politicians and generals.

Each side has its new efforts; each side experiences new disappointments.

Germany is strengthening and starts to shoulder more of the Allied burden, filling gaps left by the weakening of Britain and the United States.

Logistically bankrupt, the Red Army strives for one more struggle, one focussed effort against one of the Allies, in an effort to knock that nation out of the war, knowing that failure could spell the end, but that success could pluck victory from the jaws of defeat.

It is the 1st November 1945 and, once again, the soil of Europe is being soaked in blood and tears.

Soviet armies have crossed the Rhine and now occupy the larger part of Germany.

The Red Army has experienced its first major defeat, hand in hand with Pyrrhic victories, bought with high losses in materiel and extreme casualties.

Zhukov has been replaced by Konev, paying the price for falling too far behind the schedule of war.

Soviet forces open a new front, striking south from Bavaria and Austria, aiming at the plains of Northern Italy.

Winter approaches and brings with it the harshest conditions in living memory. However, the war stops for nothing and, even as snow falls on snow, plans are laid on both sides of the divide.

The second book in the Red Gambit Series. Starting on the 13th August 1945, ‘Breakthrough’ follows the soldiers, sailors, and airmen of both sides in the struggle for supremacy in Europe. From Irish waters to the freezing Barents Sea, a hotel in Spain to a school house in Germany, a gutter fight in Eggenthal to true horror on the banks of the Veerse River, and from Mongolia to Nova Scotia, and into the Parliament of the United Kingdom, ‘Breakthrough’ will continue the journey through the events that became known as World War Three.

The first of a series of books that cover World War Three, from July 1945 through to its close in September 1947.

From the cold waters of the Baltic to a coffee shop in Turkey, a Chateau in Alsace to paddy fields in China, a foxhole in Northern Germany to the Kremlin’s private offices, the Red Gambit series will carry you through the events that lead up to and continue through what became known as World War Three.

Told from the point of view of the soldiers in the frontline, aircraft pilots, submarine and tank commanders and on to the Supreme Commanders on either side of the divide.

Ride with Colonel of Tanks Arkady Yarishlov of the Red Army, fight alongside Major John Ramsey VC of the Black Watch, learn about leadership and honour from ex-SS Standartenfuher Ernst-August Knocke and follow Major Marion J. Crisp to glory with the 101st US Airborne Division.

it was June 1945 and soldiers who had been fighting for years could look up at the summer sky and know that death would not visit them that day.

It was the pause but they didn’t know it.
