Los Angeles, California Oct 28, 2025 (Issuewire.com) - Peter Moscovita’s “The Following Storm – Book 1” introduces readers to an unforgettable journey of bravery, sacrifice, and romance at the brink of global conflict. Set in 1936, this historical thriller follows Karl, a young Austrian maritime officer whose life is upended as the clouds of war gather over Europe. When Karl abandons his ship to rescue his mother, sister, and nephew from impending danger, he embarks on a perilous escape that spans Austria, Belgium, and England.
Along the way, Karl reunites with a former love in Innsbruck before bartering everything—including his car—for safe passage to England. Once there, he faces an uncertain future until the British Intelligence Service offers him a chance to turn his seafaring skills into espionage. As he trains in the icy winters of Scotland, Karl’s daring mission against Nazi Germany becomes entwined with a passionate affair with a fellow operative, raising the stakes of both love and loyalty.
Moscovita, drawing on his lifelong travels and fascination with European history, crafts a vivid, immersive narrative that blends authentic historical detail with the pacing of a modern spy thriller. Praised by early readers for its “cinematic sweep” and “emotional depth,” “The Following Storm” is the first in a four-book series chronicling Karl Vita’s extraordinary life before, during, and after WWII.
