The Light Attendant: A Canadian Bluebird Novel, Part II - Paperback

by Wendy Fehr (Author)

When you meet yourself on the battlefield who is it that survives?

The only reason Henry Ryzak went to war in the mud and cold of France was to protect his older brother Will and escape his father's ire. With some patented Henry Ryzak sleight of hand, Henry sends Will home, safe from the bullets, shelling, and freezing rain of the trenches. Having recovered from his injuries, Henry returns to the front where he comes face to face with his true enemy in the war: himself.

Henry's only guiding light through the horrors of the war is his memory of Abbigail, the Bluebird who tended to his injuries and whose light illuminated truths Henry had long denied. With no prospect of a relationship with Abbigail, Henry resumes his reckless tendencies on the battlefield. Torn between his hopeless disregard for himself and a responsibility to his unit, Henry embarks on the most hazardous of all campaigns: confronting his failings to become a man worthy of his comrades' respect - and the man Abbigail inspired him to be.

With his own life and the fate of his unit in the balance, will all of Henry's bad decisions overtake him on the battlefield of the Great War?

A gripping continuation of The Light Attendant series, Part II follows one soldier's journey through the turmoil of World War I as he fights an enemy both on and off the battlefield.

Part 2 of a three-part series.
