The Kirov Saga Continues…

Men of War — By John Schettler

It is late 1942 and the war rages on, but buried deep in the hidden rooms of Bletchley Park are files and photographs of a strange ship that bedeviled the world’s navies for two years, and then vanished. The men in Whitehall and Bletchley Park have not forgotten what they learned about this ship, which left behind more than nightmare visions and blackened ship hulls. There was a man, Gennadi Orlov, leaping to his freedom in a fit of jubilant violence—with a Glock pistol that would not be designed or produced for nearly 60 years…and one thing more…

Now the true nature of the threat posed by the ship they had come to call Geronimo is finally revealed to the dogged analysts at Hut 4, and if one ship appeared to challenge the power of the British Empire, when might the next one come? A ‘Great War’ is coming, this they now know, a war so devastating and final that they must do everything in their power to prevent it. Men have died that should have lived, and others walk the earth who should have perished. What might they and their successive generations write upon the tattered pages of history shorn by Kirov’s private war on war itself? The realization is so startling, and so frightening, that a secret organization is established at Bletchley Park known simply as “The Watch.”

Join the brilliant genius Alan Turing and Admiral John Tovey as they now lead the hunt for Kirov into darkened corners of history in an exciting intrigue of spymasters and sinister plots to control the course of all future history. In so doing they find that one other man has now become aware of their operations, in a future they can but dimly perceive—Anton Fedorov, who has become obsessed with the mystery of Kirov’s disappearance and the secret of “Rod-25.” Then something very strange begins happening to crew members who served aboard Kirov during that fateful voyage, and it changes everything.

The Kirov saga continues as Anton Fedorov joins with Admiral Leonid Volsky, and Captain Vladimir Karpov in a desperate effort to solve the mystery and heal the breach in time that was torn by their own bloodied hands in the heat of naval combat.

“Every book, every volume you see here, has a soul. The soul of the person who wrote it and of those who read it and lived and dreamed with it. Every time a book changes hands, every time someone runs his eyes down its pages, its spirit grows and strengthens.”

~ Carlos Ruiz Zafón, The Shadow of the Wind
