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.

The book is available to the trade by Independent Publisher's Group.

Night of Flames now available at all bookstores

Night of Flames Going on Tour!!

NIGHT OF FLAMES : A novel of World War Two is going on tour - a virtual blog tour, that is, which I have come to learn is the 21st century mode of book promotions. At the most recent HNS (Historical Novel Society) conference in Chicago, dozens of accomplished authors were talking about their success in on-line book promotions through virtual blog tours. One of the organizations most frequently mentioned was Pump up your Book Promtion. So I contacted the organization's founder, Dorothy Thompson and we were off and rolling. The tour will run through Setember and October with a different book blog featuring NIGHT OF FLAMES each day. Dorothy has kept me busy for the last few weeks writing guest posts and filling out author interviews but it should be great fun when it gets rolling and will hopefully bring Anna and Jan's story of courage and determination to many more readers of historical fiction. Keep watching this blog for updates.

Hi Doug,

I'm hosting you tomorrow for the Night of Flames tour. I was wondering if you'd be interested in doing an interview for Examiner.com? Do you have an email I should use to contact you?
