About this listen

When Evie’s dreams come crashing down, she’s determined to still make something of herself in these trying times....

It is 1939, and working-class Evie Bishop has received a scholarship to study mathematics at Oxford when tragedy turns her life upside down. Evie must seek a new future for herself and, inspired to contribute to the war effort, joins the Women’s Auxiliary Air Force as an Ops Room plotter.

Posted to a fighter station on the Sussex Coast, Evie befriends two other WAAFs - shy, awkward May and flirty, glamorous Jess. Faced with earning the approval of strict officers and finding their way in a male-dominated world, the three girls band together to overcome challenges, navigate new romances and keep their pilots safe in the skies.

But the German bombers seem to know more than they should about the base’s operations, and soon Evie, May and Jess are caught up in a world more dangerous than they ever imagined.

There was just a few characters who you could hold in your mind and had empathy with; they seemed human!

A NICE story

Wow it’s rare to rare about a story that just totally captures me from the characters to the twists and turns of the story as it plays out. I couldn’t put this down even listening at 4am!! and when finished the sense of relief that the story continued was massive.

Stunning, wonderful , don’t ignore

Lots of insight into various types of human beings as well as a bit of mystery. Light reading at its best.
Well narrated, which makes all the difference.
