My next #spy #thriller is on the theme of espionage in computing during WWII. I love the phones at Bletchley Park with a warning that calls are not secret. No voice encryption back then! @histnovsoc @HistWriters @MilHistMag @ExeterNovelPriz

And it's here! Welcome to book 9 of the #PeninsularWarSaga. #AFormidableFrontier takes Van Daan's brigade over the border into France. Of course they're taking the usual gang of hangers-on, so anything could happen... #histfic #newrelease #Napoleonic amazon.co.uk/Form.../dp/B0DL…...

#HistoricalFiction #WIP. Research on codebreaking. Atlantic convoy Oct 1943. Small red dots are our ships. Only 3 escorts. Hunted by twelve U-boats. Didn't stand a chance. @HistWriters @ExeterWriters @histnovsoc @cusslerOFFICIAL

Research on #WIP. In Oct 1942 the Royal Navy recovered an Enigma codebook from the U-559. The U-boat sank taking Able Seaman Colin Grazier and First Lieutenant, Tony Fasson, with it. Their bravery helped Bletchley Park to turn the tide of war. #spy #thriller @HistWriters

Morally grey characters are the best ones to write!
I would add "morally gray," but when I reread The Rubicon, "train wreck" also comes to mind. Still I can't help loving Jake Schmidt. The Prodigal Sons: amazon.com/dp/B0BCX7NF5Q The Rubicon: amazon.com/dp/B0CLDSYRGF #HistoricalRomance #historicalfiction #histfic #WW2 #SWW #books
