Turning the Storm (The After Dunkirk Series Book 3) Kindle Edition
As World War II reaches a tipping point, one heroic family is determined to help turn the tide.
"A sweeping, wonderfully crafted saga...Jackson has created a masterful, enduring tale." —H.W. "Buzz" Bernard, award-winning author of When Heroes Flew
Feeling the mantle of duty lying heavily on their shoulders, the Littlefields are pushed to their limits in the much-anticipated third installment in the AFTER DUNKIRK series.
The Blitz is in full force.
Bombs rip relentlessly through London, destroying buildings and rattling confidence.
How much more can the country—and one family—take?
As Britain falls further into chaos, the Littlefields—ever-dedicated—must keep fighting. Their country needs them now, more than ever, and each sibling will be tested in ways they never imagined.
Jeremy prepares to fly a mission without his trusted Eagles. But the sudden capture of someone he loves will force him to choose between fulfilling his duty and following his heart.
Still held as a POW at a high-security facility, Lance grows more and more desperate to make an escape.
And thousands of miles apart, Claire and Paul—both armed with top-secret war intelligence—experience a similar struggle: They know more than they can say. And that knowledge places their siblings in grave danger.
Meanwhile, at home and under German occupation on Sark Island, the Littlefield's parents struggle as food becomes scarce and the fire in their bellies is joined by a gnawing hunger.
Then, in a move that shocks the entire world, Germany invades Russia.
But is it really a surprise to Churchill?
What will it mean for Britain—and for the Littlefield family?
TURNING THE STORM is a can’t-miss, action-packed addition to the saga of four daring siblings willing to sacrifice everything they hold dear in order to save their country—and do each other proud.

Prodded by his publisher after the success of his first series, Lee launched into writing fact-driven, well-researched WW2 novels in the After Dunkirk Series that trace the challenges and acts of courage of a family scattered in England, across Europe, and to the US and the Pacific Theater during the world's most widespread and destructive conflict. Join Jeremy Littlefield as he escapes Dunkirk and then engages in dogfights flying a Spitfire. Watch Paul as he learns of and copes with intrigue at the highest levels in Great Britain and the US. Scheme with Lance as he outthinks tried to evade capture. Will he succeed? And delve into decrypting and analyzing German military messages, anticipating what the enemy will do next. Can this family survive and find themselves intact at the war's end.
Of Lee's prior series, The Reluctant Assassin (formerly Curse The Moon) was his first and was published in 8 countries. It follows Atcho, a counter-revolutionary leader in Cuba turned unwilling spy in the U.S. The odds he faces seem overwhelming as he must choose between saving the world from a nuclear holocaust - or his daughter. In Lee’s second book, Rasputin's Legacy, Atcho faces a surreal challenge: he must save the country that enslaved his own or deliver control of the Russian nuclear apparatus into the hands of a maniac. Can he set aside his personal desire for revenge? In his third book, Vortex: Berlin, he battles forces bent on keeping absolute power in the divided German city. Can he stop the massacre intended to terrify increasingly rebellious citizens determined to regain control over their own lives? And in the fifth and final book of the series, he goes after the terrorists who bombed the World Trade Center in 1993.
Lee lives with his wife in Texas and is a full-time writer.

In this novel and its immediate predecessors, Jackson also shines a light on what (for American readers especially) are largely forgotten yet immensely important “war fronts” that have been relatively neglected historically and in popular culture. These events have been overshadowed by the immense weight and scope of the major combat actions that followed America’s and Russia’s “awakenings” in 1941, added to the America-centric nature of Hollywood movies and popular books published in the US about WWII, and also because of the clandestine nature of many of the historical events that Jackson covers. These factors left many of the people and actions that Jackson bases his story on unheralded by the general public for a long time. Reading his stories provides much perspective on the British air war in the lonely and harrowing years before the emergence of the Grand Alliance, on the French Resistance, and on the clandestine activities at Bletchley as well as those in which Sir William Stephenson (codename "Intrepid") and "Wild Bill" Donovan (who led the OSS, progenitor of the CIA) were engaged. The research he puts into the story really stands out.
