(PRLeap.com) "The Tinderbox", a new book by Alfredo Rosado, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.What happens when the brutal realism of World War II meets the flickering hope of the supernatural? In his gripping debut novel, The Tinderbox, author and U.S. Navy veteran Alfredo Rosado takes readers behind enemy lines for a high-stakes journey of brotherhood, sacrifice, and unexpected wonder.
The story follows five soldiers camped on the jagged edge of Nazi-occupied territory. Burdened with orders to advance without reinforcements, the squad finds themselves trapped in a desperate war of attrition. As they are picked off one by one by an overwhelming enemy force, the survivors are pushed to the brink of despair.
Everything changes when one soldier discovers a mysterious, magical tinderbox. This ancient artifact transforms a suicide mission into a quest for survival, proving that even in the darkest trenches of history, hope-and the promise to return home-is never truly lost.
