The Knewing of Pearl Harbor

Finn Hayes has seen things before they happen for as long as he can remember. The question is-what will it cost him?Raised in a small New York town shaped by hard times, Finn enlists in the Navy on the eve of World War II, carrying a second sight passed down through generations of his family-visions of what's coming before it arrives. Aboard the USS Sumner, the ordinary rhythms of military life carry him across the Pacific-until The Knewing shows him a morning he cannot outrun.When the sky over Pearl Harbor fills with smoke, Finn discovers that seeing what is coming doesn't mean he can stop it. As the unseen threads that bind a family stretch across the wreckage of war, Finn is forced to face the reality that some things cannot be changed.Blending meticulously researched World War II history with a tender exploration of intuition, grief, and what waits on the other side, The Knewing of Pearl Harbor draws on a real family account of Pearl Harbor and the author's own passage through unimaginable loss. It honors the men and women of Pearl Harbor while offering something rarer still: the possibility that love never ends."There are certain books that entertain. There are others that educate. And every now and then, a book comes along that does both while inviting us to see life through a wider lens." - Suzanne Giesemann, retired U.S. Navy Commander, author of The Awakened Way
