This book tells a compelling, fascinating, and emotionally rich tale. It employed universal themes of loyalty, friendship, bravery, and heroism. The story mainly revolves around a couple of women. They both came from different backgrounds but they were thrown together during the time of WW II. One of them was from Manchester and belonged to a working class.
The other woman was a Scottish aristocrat. One was a wireless operator and the other was a pilot. Whenever the paths of these women crossed with each other, they perfectly complemented each other and soon became devoted friends. But things changed when a highly critical mission went wrong. One of the two had to jump out of the struggling plane while it was flying over France. The Gestapo got hold of her and then she became a war prisoner.
