About this listen

A deadly crash, a government conspiracy, a lone pilot with one chance to uncover the truth.

Project Guiding Light is NATO's biggest secret. A system to take long-range bombers deep into the Soviet Union, undetected. There's just one problem, and veteran engineer Chris Milford has found it. A lethal flaw that means the aircrew will pay a terrible price. Undermined and belittled by a commanding officer who values loyalty over safety, Milford is forced down a dangerous, subversive path. Even his closest friend, Rob May, the youngest test pilot on the project, has turned his back on him. Until the crash that changes everything.

James Blatch's pause-resisting thriller is set in the 1960s world of secret military projects and an establishment that wants victory over communism at almost any price.

I’ve been an enthusiast of British aviation and started the 1950s and 60s and the aircraft and this is very credible. This is a great story and very interesting. For example, I also never appreciate that the Avro Anson, but it is true.

I look forward to the next flying story. Thanks.
