***On the eve of Americas greatest victory in the Pacific,
a catastrophic event disrupts the course of World War II, forever changing the rules of combat. . . .
*The impossible has spawned the unthinkable. A military experiment in the year 2021 **has thrust an American-led multinational armada back to 1942, right into the middle of the U.S. naval task force speeding toward Midway Atolland what was to be the most spectacular U.S. triumph of the entire war.
Thousands died in the chaos, but the ripples had only begun. For these veterans of Pearl Harborled by Admirals Nimitz, Halsey, and Spruancehave never seen a helicopter, or a satellite link, or a nuclear weapon. And theyve never encountered an African American colonel or a British naval commander who was a woman and half-Pakistani. While they embrace the armadas awesome firepower, they may find the twenty-first century sailors themselves far from acceptable.
Initial jubilation at news the Allies would win the war is quickly doused by the chilling realization that the time travelers themselvesby their very presencehave rendered history null and void. Celebration turns to dread when the possibility arises that other elements of the twenty-first century task force may have also made the tripand might now be aiding Yamamoto and the Japanese.
What happens next is anybodys guessand everybodys nightmare. . . .
