Our indomitable heroine Poppy Redfern is thoroughly immersed in her new job as a scriptwriter at the London Crown Film Unit, which produces short films featuring British civilians who perform acts of valor and heroism in wartime. After weeks of typing copy and sharpening pencils, Poppy is thrilled to receive her first solo script project- a ten-minute film about the Attagirls, and Poppy is enthralled to meet these glamorous wartime heroines. Britain is so overwhelmed by military losses that the Air Transit Auxiliary has been formed to train civilians to pilot fighter and bomber planes from factories to military airfields all over Britain. One hundred and sixty eight of them are women. They are known as the Attagirls, and Poppy couldn't be more excited to spend time with these amazing ladies. But she never expects to see two of the pilots die in seemingly preventable 'accidents.' Poppy and her handsome American fighter pilot Griff believe foul play may be at work and they soon realize that a murderer with a desire for revenge is already looking for a new victim. 610 10 $a Great Britain. $b Air Transport Auxiliary $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Women detectives $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Women air pilots $v Fiction. 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Murder $x Investigation $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Large type books. 651 0 $a Great Britain $x History $y George VI, 1936-1952 $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Mystery fiction. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a War stories. $2 gsafd 800 1 $a Arlen, Tessa. $t Woman of World War II mysteries ; $v bk. 2. 941 $a 1 945 $a lpt 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010030249.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0B3BADC2673311EEBF3E118F48ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b UIBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
