Dawson Saga

The Dawson Saga follows a Royal Navy family from Edwardian confidence to the Pacific War. The first volume begins with the naval race before 1914 and a treason scandal that divides the household. The Titans places three Dawson brothers in the First World War, while a younger generation forms dangerous personal ties with Japanese naval officers during the 1930s.

Across four books, naval duty provides continuity, but technological change, espionage, racism and global war repeatedly destroy the family’s belief that honour can remain separate from politics.
