Daybreak (2024)
Matt Gallagher
"Daybreak takes the reader on a thrilling journey through war-time Ukraine. The plot moves at the speed of a road movie, intensifying every detail of the story, each word spoken by the characters who may well be based on people the author met during his recent trips to Ukraine's front lines. Shocking and totally believable."
