PETER
HAWTHORN
THE ALASKA INCIDENT
Author’s
notes
Peter Hawthorn and his friends have completed a tour
of duty in Northern Ireland, Peter met Mary Macintyre a young nurse during the
troubles with her daughter Kenzie, a relationship for Peter and Mary flourished
once their eyes met.
Mary became the barrack nurse and Kenzie became the
adopted daughter of the men of the 2nd Yorkshire Regiment.
Peter arranged for Mary and Kenzie to be sent to
England out of harm’s way after being captured and tortured by the IRA.
After losing a number of men during their tour Peter
and nine others are informed that they are to be deployed as an exchange with
an American missile defense battery of the 5th US Army.
Northern Ireland turned these sons of Yorkshire from
boys into men but what they are about to endure would prove Northern Ireland to
be nothing but a bus-man's holiday.
The base in the middle of Brookes Forest hundreds of
miles from the nearest populated area holds a secret but with a major storm
front approaching fast, a formidable foe and a virus; these sons of Yorkshire
will have to dig deep within themselves.
Only Peter and his friends stand between the survival
of each other and the whole of humanity!
Peter has a choice to make…. stand and fight or
flee!
The story is the second book of three and is set in
November 1988; post Presidential elections in the US with President Reagan
finishing off his term and the President elect George Bush senior preparing to
start his own term as President.
President Gorbachev leads the Soviet Union, Prime
Minister Margaret Thatcher of Great Britain and Prime
Minister Brian Mulroney of Canada.
The Alaskan incident is full of violence action and
gore, a complete work of fiction although the leaders of the countries
mentioned are the real names of the characters to add credibility to the story.
