What this book is about
A B-17 bomber crew is tasked with one of the most dangerous daylight bombing raids of World War II—deep into occupied territory where enemy fighters and anti-aircraft fire await at every turn. Wyatt's tightly plotted aviation thriller puts readers inside the aluminum skin of the aircraft and the minds of the men who flew it, capturing both the camaraderie of the crew and the terror of combat at altitude. A tribute to the courage of the Eighth Air Force in the war's darkest years.
