Story4.5 out of 5 stars 40
When the US Army Air Corps came calling in 1943, looking for psychic women to help their beleaguered bomber force, Evelyn answered, hoping to use her powers to integrate the bomber crews and save American lives. She was extremely successful at it...until her aircraft got shot down. Now, Evelyn is on the run in occupied Europe, with a special unit of German Fallschirmjager and an enemy psychic on her heels. Worse, Evelyn learns that using her psychic powers functions as a strobe that highlights her to the enemy.

I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who's interested in alternate fiction or war/early 20th century history, because it's a highly engaging book that's entertaining from beginning to end. Although the story is fictional, it provides a window into what it may have been like to be an airman or airwoman during World War II, with the added excitement of special psychic abilities. This book recreates fictional scenarios of WWII in a realistic way without trivializing them, which I think is a difficult thing. The narration was extremely well done; I had a distinct sense of each character without the delivery of each being cartoonish or over-the-top.
Although I was asked to listen to this book in exchange for an Audible code, I would honestly recommend this book to anyone. It was entertaining, well written, well delivered, and it read as a realistic perspective of what it would have been like to be an airman during WWII.
