β¦ Synopsis
It is January 1964 in an alternative timeline in which the swinging sixties never happened. A little over a year has passed since the Cuban Missiles War of late October 1962.
Red Dawn, spawned as Josef Stalinβs answer to Americaβs atomic monopoly in the late 1940s has fomented full scale insurrection in Washington DC and almost sparked a war between the Worldβs two remaining nuclear superpowers.
But the real fury of Red Dawn β Krasnaya Zarya β is unspent and time is running out.
Now is a time for charismatic leaders to come forward...

A PERSONAL NOTE FOR MY READERS
The books of the Timeline 10/27/62 series are written as episodes; they are instalments in a contiguous narrative arc. The individual βepisodesβ each explore a number of plot branches, and develop themes continuously from book to book. Inevitably, in any series some exposition and extemporization is unavoidable but I try β honestly, I do β to keep this to a minimum as it tends to slow down the flow of the stories I am telling.
In writing each successive addition to the Timeline 10/27/62 βverseβ it is my implicit assumption that my readers will have read the previous books in the series in sequence, and that my readers do not want their reading experience to be overly impacted by excessive re-hashing of the events in previous books.
Humbly, I suggest that if you are βhookedβ by the Timeline 10/27/62 series that reading the books in sequence will β most likely - enhance your enjoyment of the experience.
