Europe is at war, but New York's Thousand Islands are at the height of the tourist season. Kennet Fiskare, son of a hotel proprietor, is having the summer of a lifetime, having fallen deeply in love with a Swedish-Brazilian guest named Astrid Virtanen. But the affair is cut short, first by Astrid's family obligations, then by America's entry into the war. The rigors of military life help dull Kennet's heartache, but when his battalion reaches France he is thrown into front line combat. As his unit crosses Europe, Kennet falls into a different kind of love: the intense camaraderie between soldiers. Sustained by his friendships, Kennet both witnesses and commits the unthinkable atrocities of warfare, altering his view of the world and himself. To the point where a second chance with Astrid in peacetime might be the most terrifying and consequential battle he's ever fought. 648 7 $a 1939-1945 $2 fast 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $z Europe $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Man-woman relationships $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Soldiers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $x Campaigns $z Europe $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Post-traumatic stress disorder $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Man-woman relationships. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01007080 650 7 $a Military campaigns. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01710190 650 7 $a Post-traumatic stress disorder. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01072762 650 7 $a Soldiers. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01125233 651 0 $a Thousand Islands (N.Y. and Ont.) $v Fiction. 651 7 $a Europe. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01245064 651 7 $a North America $z Thousand Islands. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01310087 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Romance fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921732 655 7 $a War fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01922585 655 7 $a War fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Romance fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20220104013923.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=598CD0426D2E11ECB3EC20C24FECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b C@VInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
