Book Five · The USS Arizona Series
“Haunting, restrained, and quietly devastating—The Sound of Joy captures the fragile beauty of a life just before history shatters it, and I couldn’t stop thinking about it long after the final page.”
Before the war.
Before the fire.
Before the silence that would echo across the Pacific.
Vincent DeLuca learned early that music could do what words could not.
Raised in a quiet Brooklyn apartment by a father who spoke through his trumpet, Vincent discovers that sound can comfort the grieving, move the hardened, and hide the pain no one dares to name. By thirteen, his talent is undeniable. By fifteen, it is his armor.
As America drifts toward war, Vincent’s music carries him far from funerals and wedding halls—toward uniforms, discipline, and the rigid order of the U.S. Navy. Assigned to the USS Arizona, he brings his trumpet aboard a battleship that feels invincible, anchored in the calm waters of Pearl Harbor beneath golden Hawaiian skies.
But beneath the beauty, something is already breaking.
The Sound of Joy is a deeply moving novel about talent without tenderness, performance without connection, and the cost of becoming excellent at surviving while forgetting how to live. Set in the years leading up to Pearl Harbor, this book explores the quiet tragedies that happen long before history makes its noise—and the fragile humanity carried into war by the men who will soon face it.
This is not a story about the attack.
It is the story of everything that came before it.
A novel of:
World War II naval history
Pearl Harbor before December 7, 1941
Music as memory, refuge, and reckoning
Fathers and sons, silence and legacy
The moment when joy is still possible—and already slipping away
Perfect for readers of Herman Wouk, Jeff Shaara, and Ken Follett, The Sound of Joy blends meticulous historical detail with intimate, literary storytelling in a series that builds inexorably toward one of the most devastating mornings in American history.
