NEW - New Fiction Book: The Peacekeeper Who Couldn't Keep His Own Peace

A Canadian peacekeeper deploys to Croatia in 1993 to separate armies that want nothing to do with peace. He comes home carrying wounds nobody can see. Decades later, a daughter he never knew existed makes her way across the country to find him. The Peace Thieves is Brent Van Staalduinen's sixth novel, built around a question the title refuses to let go of: who is stealing the peace, and can it ever truly be kept? An anti-war novel that openly celebrates the people sent into harm's way, and asks what a country owes them when they return.
