Overview

RedBeard's Vikings invade the north east coast of England in 1999 and slaughter fifty locals on a raid along the A63. Police officer, Inspector Bielby, first has to contain and then explain the violence to the UK's Prime Minister, Donald Berwick, and USA President, George Sutton. Bielby's analysis forces the world leaders to dramatically rethink time travel. A brilliant transatlantic scientific team - including top UK boffin Caroline Whittleton - must explain how Vikings waking up in the tenth century can die at the end of the twentieth. When a murderous Nazi platoon massacring civilians in Poland confirms people can be transported through time with pinpoint accuracy, the task force scientists realise they have hours and days to locate and neutralise the scientist responsible, Yoshi Kasaga. Kasaga's ground zero is his native Japan, where two WW2 nuclear bombings killed 200,000. A third plane, lost in 1945 carrying an atomic bomb, resumes the exact same mission in 1999 to bomb Tokyo. 'Named 'Big Daddy', it was a small weapon by today's standards. Still, at around 23 to 25 Kilotons, it was a little larger than both 'Little Boy' and 'Fat Man', which were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in the following few days.' Although the time-travelling Vikings and Nazis were stopped dead in their tracks, can world leaders and scientists stop the 'Big Daddy' USA B-29 bomber before it is too late?

Hit the North publisher, Andrew Field.
