Book Three Teaser | The Parallel Four – The Mind Games Begin
Welcome to Book Three of The Parallel Four, where the battlefield shifts from bullets to brains. After years in uniform, Stephen, Vinka, Johan, and Marlin are posted to 15(UK) Psychological Operations Group — a world of intelligence, persuasion, and quiet warfare. No gunfire this time. Just leaflets, loudspeakers, and words sharp enough to change hearts, minds, and sometimes… history.
From Cold War Germany to Iraq, the Balkans, and beyond, the four veterans navigate global tension, family chaos, and the bittersweet balance between duty and love. Expect real military life, rugby camaraderie, Nordic skiing expeditions, and missions that never make the headlines — told with humour, heart, and hard-won truth.
This is more than service life. It’s what happens when loyalty outlasts war.
👉 Subscribe for gripping real-life military stories, PsyOps secrets, veteran life reflections, and the bonds that hold it all together — from the 1970s through to the 2000s.
The Parallel Four Book Three Teaser
Writing The Parallel Four has been a journey in itself—a walk through memories, dreams, and all the little moments that shape who we become. Some parts of this story are true. Some are truer than I’d care to admit. And some—well, let’s just say they’re inspired by what might’ve happened if life had taken a different turn.
The characters you’ll meet in these pages—Stephen, Johan, Vinka, Marlin, Tim, and Petra—are fictional, but they live and breathe with the spirit of real people I’ve known, loved, and lost. Their world is stitched together from scraps of real places, actual events, and a few wild yarns that got better with each retelling down the pub.
Poplar, Hitchin, and the snowy reaches of Sweden aren’t just backdrops—they’re characters in their own right. They’ve shaped this story as much as the people in it. And if you happen to recognise a place, a turn of phrase, or a certain kind of mischief from your own youth… well, consider that my nod to you.
This first book takes us from scraped knees to stolen kisses, from playground politics to life’s first real goodbyes. It’s about growing up, making mistakes, and finding the people who’ll stand by you no matter what—even if they sometimes drive you round the bend.
To those who remember the ‘50s and ‘60s—this one’s a memory jogger. To the younger lot—it’s a peek into a time when life moved slower, but feelings still ran just as fast.
And finally, to Stephen, Johan, Vinka, Marlin, Tim, and Petra—six hearts bound by the wonder of first love. Not the fleeting kind that fades with time, but the rare and lasting kind that deepens, steadies, and endures—a love that grows with them, becoming part of who they are, and who they will always be. And though this is only the beginning, the road ahead will test them in ways they cannot yet imagine—through training, through battle, and through the choices that will shape the rest of their lives.
