The D-day landings - the fate of 2.5 million men, 3000 landing
craft and the entire future of Europe depends on the right weather
conditions on the English Channel on a single day. A team of Allied
scientists is charged with agreeing on an accurate forecast five
days in advance. But is it even possible to predict the weather so
far ahead? And what is the relationship between predictability and
turbulence, one of the last great mysteries of modern physics?
Wallace Ryman has devised a system that comprehends all of this -
but he is a reclusive pacifist who stubbornly refuses to divulge
his secrets. Mark Latchford, a young maths prodigy from the Met
Office, is sent to Scotland to discover Ryman's system and apply it
to the Normandy landings. But turbulence proves more elusive than
anyone could have imagined and events, like the weather, begin to
spiral out of control.
