Liverpool, 1939. Twin brothers Romulus and Remus Hutchinson (Rom and Remmie) grew up in a proud seafaring Liverpool family. So when war breaks out in Europe, they are both keen to sign up and do their part. With their parents’ consent, both boys join up on their 16th birthday in October 1939 – Romulus as an RNVR sub-lieutenant on a Royal Navy destroyer and his brother as a deck hand with their father’s employer, John Holt & Company.

With sadistic training officers seemingly intent on breaking the cadets’ spirits before their careers have even set sail, the boys quickly start to have regrets. But there is no time for doubts, as they are quickly thrown into the cauldron of the war. With Operation Dynamo around the corner, the Hutchinson brothers face a baptism of fire. Can they make their mark as their forefathers did before them? Or will the unforgiving sea claim yet more victims…?

FOR THOSE IN PERIL is the first book in the Romulus Hutchinson Naval Adventure series: action-packed, authentic historical adventures following twin brothers serving with the Royal Navy and the Merchant Navy during the second world war.
