This is a 350 page preview of Aggressor series volume V, FULCRUM. Presented here are the first two chapters, each of which is a self-contained, fully resolved story arc. The full novel, releasing in August, is expected to run to at least 700 pages so that it can capture the wide ranging implications of a global superpower conflict. I won't be 'over-writing' - in essence I am delivering readers two books in one to finish off the series with a bang!

In this preview:

It is six months since the Battle of Hawaii.

The war to defend Taiwan has become World War III, and the surviving pilots of a rested and refitted Aggressor Inc. are thrown back into the fight as it moves across multiple fronts.

1) In the Central Pacific, sonar operator Elvis 'Ears' Bell and his Orca submersible hunt a Chinese submarine 'wolf pack' preying on a vital convoy.

Could a Chinese hacker captured off San Luis Obispo Bay hold the key to the wolf pack's victory, or defeat?

2) On Japanese Kunashiri Island, the crew of a single Japan Ground Self Defense Force tank tries to hold back an entire Russian airborne company, while marauding Russian fighters pour into the skies overhead.

Can Captain Shinji Kagawa, commander of the Japan Maritime Self Defense Force Destroyer, JS Haguro, give them a fighting chance?
