Before the war, they dreamed of who they would become.
England, 1939.
At a quiet RAF base, young men prepare for a future they can barely imagine. Among them is Herman Andersen, a Danish outsider, caught between countries, loyalties, and a growing sense that the life ahead of him may not be the one he has imagined.
The days pass in a strange stillness - training flights, long evenings, restless anticipation. War has been declared, yet for a time an almost unreal peace persists, leaving space for ambition, longing, and a love that may be more illusion than truth.
As reality begins to press in, Herman must confront the distance between who he is and who he hopes to become.
A novel of youth, identity, and the last moments of innocence before everything changes.
