Deserters

By Jamie Flanagan

From the award-winning screenwriter of Netflix's Midnight Mass and The Haunting of Bly Manor comes a gripping historical fantasy novel perfect for fans of Homer's The Odyssey and Guillermo del Toro's Pan's Labyrinth.

In post-World War II Italy, a traumatized partisan and an enigmatic priest set off on a journey to find a possessed man. A decade earlier, a Jewish widow and her three children are forcibly separated by Mussolini's regime. At the height of the war, an Allied sapper in enemy territory struggles to find his way home. And will cross rivers, time, and death, to bring them all together.

A braid of tales about fascism and its devastating consequences. The day-to-day horrors of Mussolini's Italy meld with contemporary woes and ancient myths alike in this debut novel by Jamie Flanagan.
