Description

In September 1939, Nazi mystic Heinrich Himmler, The Holocaust's mastermind, conscripts physicist Peter Winter to devise a secret weapon of supernatural power, and a revolutionary aircraft to deliver it.

Himmler wants to win both World War II and the contest to succeed Hitler. But Peter, and his Jewish wife, Rachel, have their own agenda. In April 1945, novice Aerial Photographer Specialist Jimmy Righetti arrives in England from Brooklyn, spoiling for a fight. But with Germany reeling, Jimmy's running out of war. In 2020 Pakistan, the elite terrorist known only as The Asp survives a US drone strike, then undertakes a solo mission to penetrate America's heartland, and revive Radical Islam. In 2021, aircraft historian Cass Gooding and aging Colorado cowboy Frank Luck unlock an aviation relic's secret. Atop North America's backbone, old secrets collide with new, and Cass and Frank must prevent World War III, or die trying.
