About the book
"Gut-wrenching force...A majestic, fiery epic. The Given Day is a huge, impassioned, intensively researched book that brings history alive." - The New York Times
Dennis Lehane, the New York Times bestselling author of Live by Night—now a Warner Bros. movie starring Ben Affleck—offers an unflinching family epic that captures the political unrest of a nation caught between a well-patterned past and an unpredictable future. This beautifully written novel of American history tells the story of two families—one black, one white—swept up in a maelstrom of revolutionaries and anarchists, immigrants and ward bosses, Brahmins and ordinary citizens, all engaged in a battle for survival and power at the end of World War I.

About the book
The epic story of war and medicine from the award-winning author of North Woods and The Piano Tuner is "a dream of a novel...part mystery, part war story, part romance" (Anthony Doerr, author of All the Light We Cannot See).
Vienna, 1914. Lucius is a twenty-two-year-old medical student when World War I explodes across Europe. Enraptured by romantic tales of battlefield surgery, he enlists, expecting a position at a well-organized field hospital. But when he arrives, at a commandeered church tucked away high in a remote valley of the Carpathian Mountains, he finds a freezing outpost ravaged by typhus. The other doctors have fled, and only a single, mysterious nurse named Sister Margarete remains.
But Lucius has never lifted a surgeon's scalpel. And as the war rages across the winter landscape, he finds himself falling in love with the woman from whom he must learn a brutal, makeshift medicine. Then one day, an unconscious soldier is brought in from the snow, his uniform stuffed with strange drawings. He seems beyond rescue, until Lucius makes a fateful decision that will change the lives of doctor, patient, and nurse forever.
From the gilded ballrooms of Imperial Vienna to the frozen forests of the Eastern Front; from hardscrabble operating rooms to battlefields thundering with Cossack cavalry, The Winter Soldier is the story of war and medicine, of family, of finding love in the sweeping tides of history, and finally, of the mistakes we make, and the precious opportunities to atone.
"The Winter Soldier brims with improbable narrative pleasures...These pages crackle with excitement... A spectacular success." —Anthony Marra, New York Times Book Review

The Fateful Dawn
Historical Fiction · War Fiction · World War 1
Our take
The war may seem stalled on the ground, but in the skies above France a new weapon changes everything. In The Fateful Dawn, Lieutenant Andrew Aird confronts the deadly rise of the German Fokker while wrestling with divided loyalties of love and duty. This World War I aviation novel combines technical detail, aerial combat, and moral tension at the dawn of modern air warfare.

About the book
The Fokker menace has arrived. And the skies will never be the same.
Summer 1915. The Western Front is quiet—but in the skies above, everything is about to change.
Lieutenant Andrew Aird returns to France with memories of love and longing—and a new enemy waiting to strike. The German Fokker E.I, armed with a revolutionary interrupter gear, threatens to turn the tide of the air war. And when Aird witnesses a brutal aerial ambush, he knows the Royal Flying Corps must adapt or die.
Flying a Vickers FB5 Gunbus, Aird must balance duty with the storm of emotions building inside him. He is torn between two women: Rose, the respectable English fiancée he left behind, and Claudine, the fiercely intelligent French actress who draws him into a tangled web of desire and conscience.
As new German aircraft terrorize the skies and Aird is plunged into chaotic dogfights and desperate patrols, he faces not only the ruthless enemy but also the conflict within his own heart.
In THE FATEFUL DAWN, Richard Townshend Bickers—himself a veteran of the RAF—crafts a thrilling, morally complex story of early aviation combat, set against a backdrop of shifting tactics, social class, and the brutal romance of war.
Perfect for fans of Derek Robinson, Patrick Bishop, Cecil Lewis, and historical military fiction that balances technical detail with deep character insight.
