Description
The D-day landings - the fate of millions of men and the entire future of Europe depends on the right weather conditions on the English Channel on a single morning. A team of Allied scientists is charged with agreeing on an accurate forecast five days in advance. As they work to predict the unpredictable, tensions rise and the stakes grow higher. Can Wallace Ryman, a reclusive pacifist and renowned forecaster, share his secrets with the team? Meanwhile, Henry Meadows, a young maths prodigy, must use his skills to save the day. But as events begin to spiral out of control, it becomes clear that turbulence is more elusive than imagined. Giles Foden's gripping novel explores the complexities of forecasting and the human cost of uncertainty, set against the backdrop of one of history's most pivotal moments.
