Vicki Beeby

    Vicki Beeby vo svojej historickej fikcii skúma priateľstvá a lásky vojačiek, ktoré spája druhá svetová vojna. Ponoruje sa do hlbokých ľudských vzťahov a emocionálnych svetov postáv tvárou v tvár historickým udalostiam. Jej štylistický prístup sa vyznačuje vnímavosťou k detailom a psychologickou hĺbkou postáv, čo čitateľom prináša pútavé a dojímavé rozprávanie. Autorka tak ponúka svieži pohľad na známe historické obdobie prostredníctvom intímnych príbehov žien.

      "It is 1939 and working class Evie Bishop has received a scholarship to study mathematics at Oxford when tragedy turns her life upside down. Evie must seek a new future for herself and, inspired to contribute to the war effort, joins the Women's Auxiliary Air Force as an Ops Room plotter. Posted to a fighter station on the Sussex Coast, Evie befriends two other WAAFs - shy, awkward May and flirty, glamorous Jess. Faced with earning the approval of strict officers and finding their way in a male dominated world, the three girls band together to overcome challenges, navigate new romances and keep their pilots safe in the skies. But the German bombers seem to know more than they should about the base's operations and soon Evie, May and Jess are caught up in a world more dangerous than they ever imagined..."--Provided by publisher
