In the shadowed waters off Oran during the pivotal hours of Operation Torch, Petty Officer Charles William Hurst confronts the unrelenting horrors of war and the fragile hope of survival. Amidst the tension and chaos of the Allied landings in North Africa, Charlie faces duty, sacrifice, and the fierce battle raging both around him and within his heart.Through harrowing night-time manoeuvrers, desperate fighting aboard HMS Hartland, and his final moments etched with love and courage, this is the story of a man caught in the storm of history. His last letter to his wife and new born son becomes a haunting testament to the bonds that endure beyond the battlefield.Letters from the Storm is a vivid, unflinching portrayal of bravery and loss in the face of overwhelming odds-an intimate glimpse into a sailor’s sacrifice and the price of freedom.
