Under the Radar

Enjoy a literary tasting menu from Tundra Books and Doubleday Canada, featuring different genres and places in time: the present, past, future and another temporal plane altogether… Head back to 1911 New York and the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory with Irene Watts in Touched by Fire; hear about a WWII concentration camp in Elizabeth Wein’s Rose Under Fire; PTSD and a teenager’s post-war life are explored in Julie Johnston’s Little Red Lies; in Death of a King by Andrew H. Vanderwal, the present overlaps with the time of William Wallace; experience an alternative world in Thomas Wharton’s The Tree of Story; Gail Gallant’s Apparition is a mystery pitting living against dead; and Paula Weston’s Shadows is a paranormal romance with a twist: fallen angels and innocents clash, creating a power struggle between good and evil. Whatever your taste, there is something (or many somethings!) in this outstanding sampler for you.
