May, 1944 The world is once again alight with the fires of global conflict. Far above the skies of occupied Western Europe, Allied and Axis powers do battle from behind the controls of the war's most powerful flying machines, German fighters squaring off against endless armadas of British and American heavy bombers. This is a war driven by oil, blood, steel and raw nerve. James Caulfield, Hollywood's latest golden boy, has spent the majority of the war on the sidelines, more than keen to serve his country by way of propaganda and public appearances. However, after an ill-fated liaison with a prominent young woman, Caulfield finds himself forced into the conflict he's tried so desperately to avoid. Alongside the young, dysfunctional crew of a mighty B17 Flying Fortress on their mission to bomb the heart of Nazi Germany, Caulfield must find the soldier within himself if he's to survive his clash with destiny . . .
Autorenporträt
Born and raised in the Canadian suburb of Brampton, Ontario, Jake Howard developed a love of storytelling at a very young age. It really didn't matter what form said stories came in-books, games, movies or television-there were few things young Jake loved more than being whisked away on fantastical, high-octane adventures. Combining that love of tall tales with an even brighter passion for history and his lofty writing ambitions, Jake set about crafting his very own action-packed, heartfelt tale to sit alongside the world's incredible and vast canon of historical fiction pieces. Whilst it's definitely nothing akin to the works of Hemingway (or other authors with legitimate talent), the author sincerely hopes that you enjoy reading this book as much as he enjoyed writing it!
