Book 2 of 3: Fallout of War
The desperate fight for survival has given way to something harder: a grinding war of attrition where victory is measured in meters, and the question is no longer whether Ukraine will fall but whether the West will lose patience first.
Lieutenant Commander James Fairbanks has earned his place among Ukrainian special forces. His drone operations reshape battles and bloody Russian logistics across the front. But when Pentagon doctrine clashes with battlefield reality during the summer offensive, James must choose between the approaches that save lives and the orders that satisfy Washington.
In Brussels and Kyiv, Lucy Fairbanks coordinates billions in Western aid while navigating diplomats who hesitate and allies who waver. When a Russian missile orphans a four-year-old girl, Lucy becomes the only family Maria has left—adding an impossible personal burden to her impossible professional one.
Then a journalist who has cultivated them both is exposed as Russian intelligence. The Fairbanks marriage, already strained by separation and secrets, must survive a betrayal neither saw coming.
From the ruins of Bakhmut to strikes deep into Crimea, Fallout of War: Ukraine — Year Two delivers tactical realism, high-stakes diplomacy, and the intimate cost of a war that demands everything from those who fight it.

Author Bio:
I love words, but that wasn’t always true. I grew up with a talent for numbers, leading me to follow a different path. I went to Annapolis and MIT and became a nuclear physicist at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. Only after I retired was my desire to tell stories reawakened.
In recent years, I have immersed myself in the world of words, drawing on my scientific knowledge and personal experience to shape my writing.
As a scientist, I explored physics and technology, which enabled me to create informative and insightful books, sharing my knowledge with readers who sought to expand their understanding in these areas—contributing to their intellectual growth while satisfying my own passion.
But it was my time as a naval officer that ignited my imagination and propelled me into science fiction. After graduating from the United States Naval Academy and serving on nuclear submarines during both hot and cold wars, I witnessed firsthand the complexities and challenges of military operations that seamen face daily.
This allowed me a unique perspective, which I channeled into creating Henry Gallant and a 22nd-century world where a space officer fought against invading aliens. Through this narrative, I explored the depths of human resilience, the mysteries of space, and the intricacies of military conflict.
My stories let me share the highlights of my journey with you. I hope you enjoy the ride. (www.hpeteralesso.com)
