A Near Miss for the Flying Nightingales

The dramatic and compelling wartime saga
With her life in danger, can she still protect those closest to her?

Holly Hardwick had a lonely childhood as an orphan raised by her aunt and uncle. Since joining the air ambulance crew at RAF Sarsden, she’s collected a tight-knit group of friends, including Ruby and Meg, fellow nursing orderlies, and Adam Foster, who was invalided out of the army after Dunkirk.

Now, Holly has another new friend – ten-year-old orphan Sam, who she meets during an air raid. Inspired by tales of the Dead End Kids during the Blitz, Sam frequently helps put out fires during raids. But Holly soon learns that the houses he visits are later found to have been burgled.

Refusing to believe Sam has anything to do with the thefts, she and Adam work together to find the real culprit. What Holly doesn’t know is that someone else is following her, determined to keep her from discovering the truth…

A gripping and romantic story of secrets, danger and betrayal, perfect for fans of Rosie Hendry, Maisie Thomas and Betty Walker.
