Strawberry Fields

By Patrick D. Joyce

Ambitious young reporters Josie and Laurent arrive in Prague in 1968 to cover a revolution unfolding behind the Iron Curtain. It’s the story of a lifetime. A dream come true.

A dream that’s about to become a nightmare.

Soviet tanks thunder into the city, changing everything. Josie receives a cryptic message from a shrouded stranger on a mist-covered bridge, and soon she and Laurent are propelled onto a collision course with nefarious villains and unstoppable forces, as they rush to uncover a shadowy conspiracy before the city falls.

Strawberry Fields drops you into an adventure you can’t put down, complete with secrets, spies, and — at the heart of it all — the power of rock and roll.

"Vivid setting, richly drawn characters, and a forceful historical context ... Vibrates with authenticity" -The Booklife Prize by Publishers Weekly

"Breathless chases, cryptic clues, a heroine with grit, and a little romance ... A bang-up job of keeping the pages turning and vividly rendering the sights of Prague" -Melissa Joulwan, Strong Sense of Place podcast
