The future has entered World War II—and the enemy is learning how to fight it.

After the USS Gerald R. Ford was thrown back into 1942, Rear Admiral Diane Kessler used the most powerful carrier strike group on Earth to change the course of the war.

But every victory has revealed something.

Germany is no longer reacting blindly. A secret intelligence staff is studying American radio traffic, recovered technology, captured equipment, and every weapon the Ford has fired. New traps are being designed for aircraft that should not exist. The enemy now understands that the carrier’s missiles are finite, its aircraft are irreplaceable, and time is fighting on Germany’s side.

Then another impossible contact appears.

A second modern vessel is hiding in the waters of wartime Europe—damaged, isolated, and carrying technology and historical knowledge powerful enough to transform the Soviet Union. Its arrival proves that the Ford was not the only ship displaced through time.

As Moscow reaches for the future, Washington demands access to the carrier’s secrets, and Berlin prepares Operation WOTAN, Kessler must fight the largest coordinated assault the Ford has faced since arriving in the past.

The Ford remains the most powerful warship on Earth.

But power means little when the magazines are running empty—and the enemy only needs to win once.

Arctic Sentinel: The Second Vessel is Book Two of the Arctic Sentinel series, a fast-paced military alternate-history technothriller filled with modern naval warfare, intelligence operations, carrier aviation, and the escalating consequences of bringing twenty-first-century weapons into World War II.
