The Crane (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781778530432)

The Crane follows the difficult choices of what a person does when he cannot go on being lied to, and how stricken people find a way to carry on.

It's 1968 and James Anderson's twin brother Dave has just been killed in the Vietnam war. Knowing his turn is next, James turns his back on his family's military legacy, evades the draft, and travels to Newfoundland to fulfill a promise his brother made to a fellow soldier. Unwittingly swept into an intergenerational family secret while on assignment for a St. John's newspaper, James finds something in Newfoundland that saves his life.
