Adam Makos Book Release Event!
About this Event
From the author of the New York Times bestsellers A Higher Call, Spearhead, and Devotion comes Tidal Wave, a sweeping new epic set in an untold arena of World War II.
It’s summer 1943, and the world is on fire. Lieutenant Ernie Poulson, a 22-year-old outdoorsman from Utah, finds himself at the controls of America’s most advanced bomber, the B-24, brought to North Africa for a top-secret mission. On the far side of Europe, Lieutenant Constantin Cantacuzino, Romania’s most daring ace, duels Soviet fighters on the Eastern Front while searching for purpose in an unwinnable war.
In Nazi-aligned Romania, Princess Catherine Caradja walks a razor’s edge between loyalty to her country and quiet defiance, as German forces dig-in around the oil refineries in her backyard. And in the royal palace, 22-year-old King Michael of Romania—mocked and sidelined by a Nazi-backed dictator—quietly plots to seize his nation’s destiny before it is lost forever.
In Tidal Wave, Adam Makos brings these lives together in a sweeping saga of courage and survival, set against history’s most audacious air raid: the tree-top assault on “Hitler’s gas station” at Ploesti, Romania. What begins in disaster on August 1, 1943, sparks bonds no one could have foreseen—alliances between enemies—that will decide whether these men and women are consumed by war, or seize their chance at escape and redemption.
Drawn from years of extensive research and told with Makos's signature cinematic intensity, Tidal Wave will remind you that even in war's darkest hours, humanity has a way of breaking through.
