My upcoming  Eleventh Hour Covenant  political thriller series.

♦ Eleventh Hour Covenant. (Eleventh Hour Covenant Thriller. Book 1)

In Eleventh Hour Covenant, Israel is threatened by one of its many enemies. The aggressor is determined to destroy the little nation and is not put off by Israel’s military prowess or even its nuclear deterrent. Meanwhile, in the capitals of the combatant nations, hawks and doves vie to influence  the response of their respective armed forces.
 

One of the governments sees the survival of its population as the first priority. The other sees a great sacrifice as some kind of entrance to a new and better future. The men on the front line are bound by these decisions, made on their behalf.

Fighter pilot, Yitzhak Abrahams, is tormented by  the vacillations of his government about an enemy that needs to be neutralized now. Attempting to  balance his growing tension and  the demands of his girlfriend, Leah, for a more committed relationship, Yitzhak finds he is losing on both fronts.

His uncle, Israeli Air Force general, Tuvia Alon, tries to steady his young subordinate with his depth of military experience and a glimpse into Israel’s secret advances in military technology. Both are surprised when circumstances quickly unfold into a dire threat that seems impossible to thwart.

 ♦ The Third Reich. An Unpredictable Enemy.

Nazi Germany was a unique situation in the annals of human history. There was, of course, the obvious brutality of the regime. Moreover, the hierarchy not only contested but encouraged the rivalry between the vested interests. Competing spheres of influence such as the Wehrmacht and Schultz-Staffel were also mirrored in the areas of weapons technology and their actual manufacturing. Scientists representing their competing industrial firms raced to offer the regime the most cutting edge killing machines to reverse the Nazis’ steadily declining fortunes.

At the top of the pyramid the Führer played these rival groups against one another. On the one hand, he was always guarding against any technological knowledge somehow undermining his political power. On the other hand, he seemed to be trying to take the ‘it cannot be done’ factor out of the need to produce new wonder weapons to change the war’s direction. Because of these factors, a superior advance in military science was quite possible Consequently, a last-minute fluke to snatch a victory out of defeat was often on the cards.
