With an enemy in their midst, can they still protect their fighters in the skies?
Pearl has given up on her dreams of being a journalist after being denied a promotion because of her gender. Joining the WAAF as a radio telephone operator for Bomber Command, Pearl’s new job at RAF Fenthorpe serves two purposes – providing an income for her grandmother, and keeping a close eye on her younger sister, Thea, an instrument repairer at another Lincolnshire bomber station.
Pearl befriends Met WAAF Jenny as well as Australian pilot Greg, who she guides home safely during an emergency. Pearl’s journalism background doesn’t go to waste, however – a series of thefts from pilots rekindles her investigative fire and she is soon caught up in the mystery.
But when all signs point to the perpetrator being her sister, she finds herself up against the clock to prove her sister’s innocence…
A captivating and heartwarming WWIl saga for fans of Daisy Styles and Johanna Bell.
✨My Thoughts✨
Thanks so much for my copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
I have a few books by this author on my TBR pile but this is the first one I’ve actually read and wow I’ll be reading more as soon as I can, this is WW2 historical fiction at it’s very best.
This was such a heartwarming read and it was so well researched regarding the plight of women in WW2 and how they was pushed aside in favour of men even though they could do the job equally as well if not better.
The three women stole my heart straight away and the relationships had me smiling so much.
We also got a little mystery and intrigue happening which I enjoyed, I won’t say too much as I don’t want to give too much away.
I love Saga books and reading this story has reminded me why.
