Histria Books is pleased to announce the release of Lucky by Sarah Patt. This novel is published by Histria Fiction, an imprint of Histria Books dedicated to outstanding original works of fiction.
Sarah Patt’s Lucky begins with a premise that could easily lean into melodrama: a college student named Dakota discovers her young niece is facing the same kind of hidden abuse she survived as a child. But instead of a standard procedural about hunting down bad guys, Patt delivers something far more grounded.
Patt’s voice is remarkably unsentimental. She writes about the mechanics of grief and the agonizing instinct to protect loved ones with sharp, clear-eyed honesty. Readers today want survival stories that do not neatly resolve trauma but show how we carry it forward. Lucky meets that moment perfectly, offering a raw and relatable look at what it actually takes to break a cycle.
Sarah Patt is an author, educator, and passionate advocate for lifelong learning who balances writing with her work as a one-on-one tutor for children with language-based learning disabilities. A mother of three, Patt maintains an active lifestyle through daily fitness, pickleball, and swimming, while also championing sustainable living and animal rescue. She believes true success is measured by the lives one touches rather than wealth, and when she isn’t reading historical fiction or playing strategy games, she can be found cheering on the Boston Celtics as their self-proclaimed number one fan.
