London aerodrome, August 1914 A tale of love and courage in the face of the horrors of the First World War. Pilot Frederick Dunn is about to perform for the crowds at the air display at Hendon, just six years after the first cross channel flight. In the crowd is the rich and beautiful Kitty Burrell, the daughter of his benefactor. Twenty-four hours later Britain declares war on Germany and Fred joins the Royal Flying Corps, a band of dashing young men, aristocrats in the main, thrown into a war in the skies. The miner's son from Northumberland enters this world of power and privilege, invention and heroics, where life expectancy is measured in weeks not years. One thought keeps Fred going, Kitty Burrell. Their passionate romance, shrouded in secrecy, gives him a reason to survive. But surviving the war is not enough. There is another more dangerous test he still has to pass. A novel based on the real life of a pilot in World War One.
