About This Book

The narrative follows Don Hale as he leaves ambulance service to train at a military aviation school and eventually joins a celebrated flying squadron. Detailed training episodes and aerial engagements convey the technical demands and mortal hazards of combat flying, while camaraderie, rivalries, and an underlying mystery about several characters create ongoing tension. Encounters with spies, daring dogfights, reconnaissance and bombing missions, and episodes of arrest and trial drive the action, and several personal secrets remain unresolved until the story's resolution.
