Amidst the years preceding the Second World War, Stella North, a strong young woman, is chosen to represent Britain in Europe’s first international air race for young pilots. As the only female pilot, attempting to prove that she is a worthy competitor is nothing short of a challenge. However, Stella questions the promotion of peace in Europe, as the Nazi’s gain power and the civil war in Spain grows larger – and when a plane is sabotaged to get ahead of the competition. This novel explores the transformative power of shared experiences, the confusion and fear of identity, and the mysteries that lie deep within everyone. The world is looking for peace and entertainment in such turbulent times. But each of the racers is hiding a dark, violent past, and any one of them might be capable of murder, even Stella herself.
