One More Hour of Daylight — Historical Fiction, Britain/France/Germany 1939–1944 — Free ARC epub in exchange for an honest review

Hello everyone,

I've just completed my first WW II novel and, having spent a good while lurking here among people who clearly love this period as much as I do, I thought this might be the right place to share it.

One More Hour of Daylight is a historical fiction novel set between 1939 and 1944. Here is the pitch:

In September 1939, seventeen-year-old Derrick Sedgley finds a wounded German pilot hiding in an Essex barn. The pilot asks for one thing: one more hour of daylight before whatever comes next. Derrick agrees, then reports him anyway.

That choice follows him across the war — through SOE training, into occupied France, and finally into Germany itself, where he falls in love with the pilot's sister. When the SS close in, the debt he has carried for four years comes due in ways he never imagined.

It is a story about guilt, loyalty, and the moments that define us — told in British English, grounded in period detail, and built around a moral question that has no clean answer.

I am offering a free epub ARC to anyone willing to read it and leave an honest review on Goodreads if they enjoy it. No obligation beyond that.
