A Hidden War: Occult Operations Against Nazi Germany

By Chris Chilcott

"A Hidden War is a chillingly inventive paranormal war thriller that reimagines World War II through a secret front of occult operations, mythical forces, and classified horrors, delivering a gripping blend of historical realism and supernatural menace." - NewInBooks

What if the most brutal war in history was fought on a second, even darker front?

As Nazi Germany, under the sway of Himmler's twisted mysticism, scours the globe for artefacts like Thor's hammer and deploys battalions of werewolves and spectral Geist Korps, the Allies are forced to fight fire with hellfire. Britain's secretive Exotic Warfare Executive (EWE) leads the response, forging uneasy alliances with merfolk tribes, binding dangerous entities, and authorising projects so dark they risk the souls of those involved. From the spirit-haunted perimeter of Dunkirk to the leviathan-infested Atlantic, this is a war where the rules of reality are the first casualty.

Meticulously presented as a historical analysis, A Hidden War is filled with authentic detail, organisational charts, and classified reports. Explore the clandestine operations of the SOE's Apollo Section, the aerial phenomena investigations of the RAF's APIB, and the terrifying summonings of Operation Charon. Discover how real-world events like the Coventry Blitz, the flight of Rudolf Hess, and the sinking of HMS Dasher were not what they seemed, but part of a vast, clandestine conflict.

Fans of The Man in the High Castle, Charles Stross's Laundry Files, and the gritty authenticity of SCP Foundation reports will be captivated by this chillingly plausible exploration of a World War II fought with magic, monsters, and desperate pacts in the face of ultimate evil.
