About this item

It is 1941 and two college students in Brooklyn meet by chance. As they fall in love, Japan bombs Pearl Harbor and their future and that of their generation is suddenly changed forever. Nils Lindquist decides to become a pilot in the Army Air Corps and Marie Barton must return to England with her father, a senior official with the British Foreign Office, who is recalled to London for an urgent new assignment. Marie's mother, who is French, had gone back to Paris to work with the French Underground. After Marie settles in London, her life will again take another unforeseen and dramatic turn. John Eric Lundin through extensive research wove his fictional characters into an accurate portrayal of places and events during World War II. The flying and aerial combat sequences put the reader in the cockpit of the Spirit of Brooklyn with Nils. The heroism portrayed in this story is as much of women, as of men. They all must reach deep into themselves for the courage to carry out their missions in a world at war, whether in the air or on the ground.
