About this listen

Operation Storm King is an explosive alternative history about the death of President Franklin Roosevelt. It will take you on a heart-stopping journey, challenging your view of reality.

Historians tell us that President Franklin Delano Roosevelt died of a stroke in Warm Springs, Georgia. Operation Storm King tells of a shocking, yet entirely plausible alternative version, an audacious Nazi raid to kidnap FDR from West Point.

Starting in January 1945, this operation follows a small team of Nazi commandos as they penetrate New York Harbor and sail up the Hudson River in the revolutionary Type XXI U-Boat. Their mission: kidnap the American President and force the United States into an alliance with Germany against Russia. When FDR’s heroic but ultimately suicidal actions foil the plot, Vice-President Truman covers up the kidnapping and creates the myth of FDR's peaceful death to prevent public panic.

Seventy-five years later, Mai Zhao, a hard driving woman West Point cadet, discovers the shattered U-Boat wreck in the Hudson River, uncovering its shocking secrets. The US national security apparatus goes on alert. Zhao’s unstoppable efforts to uncover the truth threatens to undermine the American public's faith in government. Washington mobilizes powerful political and legal forces to stop her.

With fierce battles and sacrifices, action-packed scenes, and well-crafted characters, Operation Storm King is a must-listen for fans of explosive wartime adventures, gritty historical war fiction, and riveting alternative history epics. For fans of best-selling authors like Philip K. Dick, Robert Harris, or Tom Clancy, and those looking for a detailed techno-thriller.

Normally i never listen to thrillers like this but it has a cracking story that is well fit for a movie and for what it is worth i want to see it as a movie. There is so much potential with this story! The range of research and detail envelopes you into the world of 1945 in great detail that bristles with accuracy and scintillates the sense. This is a triumph and i'd love to see it do well. Congrats!

A smashing diving into the what ifs of ww2
