Excerpts from the book . . .

Anna's eyes snapped open and she sat bolt upright. The shrill sound blasted into her brain, penetrating through the fog of sleep like an icy wind. She blinked and looked around the room, trying to focus on shadowy images as the sound wailed on and on. She ran to the window. It was still dark but the night sky held a hint of gray. An early morning mist shrouded the street lamps, casting a gloomy, almost spooky glow along the deserted sidewalk below. The grating noise of the air-raid siren rasied the hair on the back of her neck and suddenly she was shivering. Anna crossed her arms over her chest and stared into the dull, charcoal sky. Then she heard another sound.

Reviews of NIGHT of FLAMES

"A taut and twisting thriller with memorable flesh and blood characters . . . Jacobson's clockwork plot draws the reader onto its rollercoaster ride at breakneck speed" - JAMES CONROYD MARTIN, award-winning author of Push not the River and Against a Crimson Sky
"A wide-ranging historical tale . . . Jacobson has written a novel that is suspensful, rich in convincingly detailed incidents, and impeccably researched. Recommended for public libraries and all collections of historical fiction" - THE LIBRARY JOURNAL
"Impeccably researched, Night of Flames is a vast, flowing, unstoppable tale . . . historical fiction at its best...highly recommended" - HOMER HICKAM, New York Times best selling author of October Sky and The Keeper's Son
"The story keeps you wanting to know how it comes out, even though you know how the war ended. It is a lesson in history with a love story--love of country and family. A great read for everyone. - POLISH HERITAGE
"This absorbing World War Two novel is well researched and skillfully executed . . . highly readable, informative and imaginative" - HISTORICAL NOVELS REVIEW

a bit about the book

Night of Flames paints a vivid and terrifying picture of war-torn Europe during WWII. It’s the tale of a Krakow university professor Anna and her husband Jan, a Polish cavalryman. Separated and forced to flee occupied Poland, Anna soon finds herself caught up in the Belgian Resistance, while Jan becomes embedded in British Intelligence efforts to contact the Resistance in Poland. He seizes this opportunity to search for his lost wife Anna. Through the long night of Nazi occupation, Anna, Jan and the ordinary people of two countries fight a covert war of sabotage and resistance against the overwhelming might of the German war machine.
