Danger was in the air—and German spies on the pier—when the ocean liner RMS Lusitania left New York City for Liverpool, England. The date was May 1,1915. Seven days later, a German U-boat torpedo sank the ship —1,198 people perished, including 128 Americans. The course was set for the U.S. to later enter the most terrifying and destructive war known to mankind up to that time.
May 7, 2015 will be the centennial of this history-changing event. Alan Geik, author, radio personality, financial blogger and London School of Economics graduate has released this historical fiction that captures the era through the eyes of two Bostonian families.
Glenfiddich Inn, embraces stock scams, love affairs, the emergence of a simpleton teenager, Babe Ruth, as America’s first great sports hero, the struggle to keep the country out of the disastrous war, and experiments with wireless audio transmissions— “radio” as it was being called—an exciting new technology two of the women characters insist will one day change the world.
Just as the characters in this story are transformed and scarred by the overpowering events, so was a generation of men and women who soon after changed the world; Franklin Roosevelt, Churchill, Walt Disney, Stalin, Hitler, Marie Curie, Eleanor Roosevelt, Ernest Hemingway, Albert Einstein, and Charlie Chaplin, just to name a few.
Glenfiddich Inn is now a Kindle reader on Amazon and in two weeks the paperback will be released.
