The guns of World War II have been silent for years, but for veteran Frank Miller, there is no peace. Especially with a daughter as curious as Francesca.

It’s been almost a decade since Frank returned from the horrors of Tobruk a celebrated war hero. But, like so many veterans, he is a broken man. Witness to unspeakable atrocities, he is emotionally paralysed, tortured by guilt, and preparing a final mission to earn his salvation: bringing justice to a killer lurking in the neighbourhood. Now, on the night of the Rats of Tobruk ten-year reunion, his darkest secrets are going to be uncovered. With a daughter as curious as Francesca, he was never going to keep them concealed forever. It was only a matter of time before she found the key to his hidden attic and the objects that reveal the source of Frank's pain.
Part war story, part crime thriller, part family drama, War of the Sparrows is a “remarkable”, “engrossing”, “ingenious” novel about a damaged veteran and a daughter with an extraordinary gift.
