I really enjoyed this book for several reasons.
Firstly the historical side was cracking. A really thoughtful story that was clearly well researched and felt true to the time period it was set in.
I loved how exciting the story was following the main character who is a female pilot serving during World War Two accused of treason.
I'm so pleased that I have access to these cracking novels from Barrington Stoke which I can use in the classroom.
