A novel about women’s important role in the Second World War. With a heart-felt, thrilling, and impeccably documented narrative, Gema Bonnín shows us that women also risked their lives to save others. A FAMILY TORN APART BY WAR London, 1936. The Munar sisters leave the island of Mallorca and the Civil War behind, and move to the vibrant English capital. In a time when everything seems possible, they will both become adults: Petra dreams of going to college, and Cati—the most adventurous one—will pursuit her dream of being a pilot. TWO WOMEN FIGHTING FOR THEIR IDEALS When the Second World War breaks out, the sound of German bombings, along with a tragic loss, will push them to get involved in the conflict. While Petra starts working for the British intelligence service, Cat enrolls in the controversial Air Transport Auxiliary female section, and from the sky she will watch Europe burn, knowing it will never be the same.
