Blackbirds

When young
Sharon Lacey travels from Canada to England in the spring of 1940 in search of
the father she never knew, she finds herself called upon to participate in a
much larger and more dangerous mission. For at eighteen, she is a gifted flier
in an England desperate for pilots to fend off the impending attack from
Hitler's Luftwaffe. In the months that follow, Sharon will be tested in ways
that will affect the rest of her life—should she survive.

With
Blackbirds, award-winning mystery novelist Garry Ryan
turns his hand towards historical fiction, vividly evoking the fear and
uncertainty of wartime England, as well as the spirit of camaraderie and
adventure shared by the men—and women—who stepped forward to defend
it.
