About this listen
In Red Thunder, volume four of the Winds of War series, WWIII rages on as the Allies plan a daring raid of the Kyshtym Copper-Electrolyte Works in the Chelyabinsk region located deep inside Russia.
As the war heats up, the Russian plant is producing significant quantities of rhenium, a rare Earth element used to produce alloys for jet engines, filaments for mass spectrographs and electrical contacts. And, according to a CIA agent named Cassandra, the Russians are going to move a large shipment of rhenium out of the Kyshtym facility to Moscow in 24 days. A decision is made at NATO headquarters. Rather than allow the Russians to transport the rhenium, the Allies will create a pop-up infantry battalion and send it into Russian territory to hijack the shipment. The man chosen to lead the battalion is an army reserve colonel and well-known actor named Alton Flynn - a man who, though famous for performing his own stunts and his magnetic personality, is also known to be a narcissist and a woman chaser.
But as one general puts it, 'Flynn is just crazy enough to get the job done'.
