Sacrifice for peace from "summary" of Wings of Fire by Charles Todd

The idea of surrendering something valuable in exchange for peace is not a new one. It has been a recurring theme throughout history, from ancient civilizations to modern times. In times of conflict, individuals and nations alike have had to make difficult decisions in order to achieve a greater good - the preservation of peace. In "Wings of Fire", this concept is explored through the character of Ian Rutledge, a World War I veteran turned detective who grapples with the aftermath of the war. Rutledge is haunted by his experiences on the battlefield, and the sacrifices he made in the name of duty and honor. As he embarks on a new career as a detective, Rutledge is forced to confront the consequences of his past actions, and the toll they have taken on his psyche. Through Rutledge's journey, the reader is confronted with the harsh realities of war and its aftermath. The sacrifices made in the name of peace are not always clear-cut, and often come with a heavy price. Rutledge must navigate this moral ambiguity as he seeks to bring justice to those affected by the war, while also grappling with his own inner demons. The concept of sacrifice for peace is a complex one, requiring individuals to weigh their own desires and needs against the greater good. It is a theme that resonates throughout "Wings of Fire", as Rutledge and other characters are forced to confront their own demons in order to achieve a sense of peace and closure. In the end, the sacrifices made are not always easy or straightforward, but they are necessary in order to move forward and find redemption.
