Description
At seventeen, Robbie takes a perilous path to follow in his father's footsteps as a pilot. To conceal his true identity, he enlists in the Royal Canadian Air Force under false pretences.
Robbie's dreams of flying are soon put on hold when he is assigned to be a navigator on a Lancaster bomber, tasked with targeting German targets in enemy territory. It is during one such mission that disaster strikes, leaving Robbie and his crew fighting for survival.
This gripping story of courage and sacrifice explores the harsh realities of war through Robbie's eyes, as he must draw on every ounce of skill and determination to save himself and those around him.
