Can the female pilots stop an attack on London...?

Autumn, 1943

Sisters Anna and Jennifer Nightingale have been flying in top missions with the Secret Sirens all-female RAF unit for nearly a year.

Their squadron of twelve Mosquitos stages a raid on Rouen to divert the enemy's attention from the Lancasters that are coming in to bomb the marshalling yards and port.

But while Jennifer makes it through the mission safely, Anna and her navigator, Maria, are forced to ditch into the Channel.

Luckily they are picked up by a British destroyer. And on board is none other than Winston Churchill himself.

Impressed by the skill and bravery of the female pilots, Churchill is keen to learn more about their training.

He escorts them back to base where they are given a new mission: to attack the Nazi-occupied Mimoyecques Fortress.

The Allies know that the Fortress is being armed with high-calibre guns capable of reaching London in a massive, unending bombardment. The Sirens need to drop bombs into the railway tunnel entrance of the Fortress as soon as possible before the unthinkable happens.

But with very little time to train, will the Sirens be able to pull off the task? Can they reach the Fortress unscathed?

Or will these Fire Maidens join the many thousands who have already lost their lives in this brutal war...?

THE FIRE MAIDENS is the third military wartime adventure novel in the Secret Sirens Aviation Thrillers Series, heart-pounding Second World War escapades with strong female leads.
