A Miracle of Deliverance: A Dunkirk Short Story Anthology

A collaboration between six Sapere Books authors to commemorate the Dunkirk evacuation in a series of linked short stories.

A young refugee flees war-ravaged Belgium, while a German tanker progresses closer to Pas-de-Calais, and a British Tommy reflects on the chaos of war as he faces his final battle.

A French artilleryman gets ready to defend his country, while a German pilot leads his dive-bombers into the attack.

The British ‘Maverick’ Squadron prepare to face down the deadly Luftwaffe as a French doctor prepares to do all she can to save lives on the battlefield.

And out at sea, a naval lieutenant strives to save the Army from complete disaster, while a young woman stows away on one of the small boats sent into the heart of the action.

Each of the stories sheds a new light on the harrowing action that took place at Dunkirk.

 

Readers familiar with the Jox McNabb series will recognise the prequel story of little Marguerite and that of the cousin of a Luftwaffe fighter pilot, which Jox meets in his next adventure THE RAPIDS AND THE ABBEY, published in December 2025.
