Synopsis
At the end of the Second World War. On the island of Goiter, near Crete, a German base is sighted and Lieutenant Marco Kastriokis of HMS Ajax is sent on patrol to prepare for the bombing of the place. He meets Anna and the two fall in love, causing jealousy of someone. An old legend tells that on the island there is a hidden place, the Golden Mouth, from which nobody has never returned because it is guarded by the Golden Monster. But it is a kind of magic place that helps who is in life danger. Marco is captured with Anna and is unable to communicate the data to the ship, but the attack takes place as if the crew of the ship would be advised, not according to the normal precautions that it would require. Marco and Anna free themselves, with the help of Maddalena, but they are hunted by Kepfel, the base commander. They find the Golden Mouth and enter, but they separate and, when Marco exits, time is in the mouth had been equivalent to one hundred and ten years outside. He finds Giovanni, Anna's father, who searched for them in the mouth, suffering the whims of time. From the mouth come out some nuns, who tell him about the cave and about Sister Maria. Marco becomes convinced that Maria is Anna and enters the mouth where Sister Maria, who is a seventy-year-old nun, introduces him to Sergio, a scientist, expert on mouths, who never completed the data to complete his research. There are two mouths inside the cave: one leads forward in time and the other backwards, but it is blocked from the outside by a landslide. Marco tries his luck again and goes back. He removes the landslide and tries to return to his time, but anticipates it by twenty years. Ettore and Chiara host him, and he becomes Marcos Kastro. Marcos has to fix the future events. When Sergio enters the mouth, Ettore, who doesn't want to live another war, follows him: He will explain to Sergio the data he would need. Marcos prevents the murder of Kassandra, by Shulz, the deputy commander of the base, and incidentally, prevents Maddalena from becoming the prostitute who will help Marco Kastriokis. He'll have to help him. He shows up on Ajax and ensures that the attack occurs without harm to Kastri. Kastriokis manages to free himself and escape with Anna, but Chiara will prevent him from entering the mouths. Sergio and Ettore will appear a few days later, thanks to the accuracy of Marcos' data.

Chapter 1 - Prologue

The war was almost over. The dawn of June 6, 1944 was a carnage, but it had had the desired effects. The landing in Sicily and the Corkscrew operation in Pantelleria had also already taken place, but the campaign had had a disappointing outcome for the Allies, who had not managed to prevent the retreat of the general's Italian-German troops Hans-Valentin Hube.

The Americans and English had taken possession of Sicily and were advancing into Italy, while HMS Ajax patrolled the sea around the island of Crete and Greece. The Allied air forces had such a destructive force that they were able to pin down and destroy their opponents in their own buildings, but the Germans were more committed to retreating and collecting the last pieces rather than counterattacking. As the war dragged on in its final aftermath, patrol missions were patrols of empty, therefore uninteresting, bases which it was useless to bomb. "Golden bridges to the fleeing enemy."

Author's note:

This prologue is just to show the time and setting of my story. Everything else does not want and does not necessarily have to respect any historical truth. Even the physical and political geography of the island of Goiter does not necessarily correspond to reality. The HMS Ajax ship actually existed and patrolled the waters of the Libyan Sea, but the deployment of the ship is not the true story. However, except where I didn't necessarily have to bend them to the story for "script" needs, I tried to respect the facts.
