"A British Top Gun.
This book is based on the author’s own experience of flying his Lynx helicopter from HMS Andromeda in 1982 and many other true stories from the Falklands War that have never been told before. It is the first of a ten-book series charting the career of Jon Hunt from Lieutenant to Commodore during the turbulent end of the twentieth century.
Royal Navy Lynx helicopter pilot Lieutenant Jon Hunt is thrust into the maelstrom of the Falklands War. He is ordered to fly a secret mission into Argentina to contact a French engineer to convince him to sabotage Argentina’s deadly Exocet missiles.
As the war hots up, Argentina desperately tries to make their missiles more effective and the British try just as desperately to develop countermeasures. Meanwhile, Jon Hunt discovers what it’s really like to fly in combat.
Eventually, the French engineer and his Argentinian girlfriend find themselves in the Islands just as the British are closing in. In appalling weather, Jon undertakes a rescue attempt which culminates in a desperate encounter in the mountains surrounding Port Stanley just as the final fight for the Islands takes place around them."
"One year after the Falklands War and the world seems a safer place. Unfortunately 1983 is the year WW3 almost happened. Staggeringly, it was only afterwards that the truth came to light, that the Russians actually went to full Nuclear Alert and came so very close to starting Armageddon. To this day most of the worlds population know nothing about it.
Lieutenant Jonathon Hunt (Sea Skimmer) has been appointed to a Commando Helicopter Squadron operating in Northern Norway.
It is the height of the Cold War and the Soviets have discovered a secret NATO submarine listening station hidden in the Arctic Ice. They would like to do something about it but cannot come up with a method of attack until they decide on the use of an Ekranoplan. This massive machine known to NATO as the ‘Caspian Monster’ can get them in and out fast enough to give them the deniability they need.
Caught up in events, Jon and his Observer Brian Pearce, find themselves flying a Sea King Mark 4 helicopter from HMS Illustrious up in to the ice in an attempt to stop the Soviets before tragedy occurs.
Based on real events of 1983, The Caspian Monster weaves a story around a year in history that most of the world slept through.
This is the second book in the series following the career of Jon Hunt in the modern Royal Navy."
"America is being flooded with drugs and the US Coast Guard can’t find out why. HMS Chester is in the Caribbean conducting trials and is tasked to aid a new anti-drugs Task Force. Helicopter pilot, Lieutenant Commander Jonathon Hunt and his Observer Brian Pearce become involved when it is decided that the war needs to be taken to the enemy.
The strength of the British and American military is pitted against the ingenuity of the Columbian drug smuggling cartels and results in a dramatic confrontation off the coast of Columbia.
This is the third naval novel following the career of Jon Hunt and once again is based on the author’s own military experience."
"Beirut, a city in chaos. After their embassy is bombed, the British decide on a full evacuation and call on the newly formed 844 Naval Air Squadron of Sea King helicopters led by Lieutenant Commander Jonathon Hunt, to conduct the operation.
Embarking on the experimental Royal Fleet Auxiliary ‘Arapaho,’ the squadron almost complete their dangerous task when Jon Hunt’s aircraft is shot down and he is taken hostage. Although a rescue is mounted, events move swiftly as a British Cruise ship is seized at sea bringing about a confrontation which only Jon and his squadron can resolve.
Based on real events of the 1980s and the author’s own military experience, Arapaho is the fourth novel about Jon Hunt, Brian Pearce, and the modern Royal Navy."
