Publisher's summary

The Cooper family saga continues, as the world descends into war and devastation….

As WWII rages, paratrooper Clyde Cooper sets sail for Panama. Expecting to be reunited with his cousin, Shawn, Clyde instead arrives to find his patriotic cousin missing. The Army brass share only scant information regarding Shawn’s last known whereabouts. Is he a casualty of war? Or is the military purposefully covering up his fate?

Meanwhile, back at home, Abigail struggles to escape her overbearing father and visits an old friend in Texas who is a pilot for the Women’s Auxiliary Ferry Squadron (WAFS). Before joining herself, Abby returns home to tie up loose ends. But when her friend uncovers dangerous shortcuts at her father’s factory, Abby is swept into a different kind of fight.

And on the other side of the world Clyde’s brother Frank finds himself settling into the brutal life of a POW. Captured by the Japanese, each day is a bloody battle to survive. A battle that Frank is not sure he can fight much longer….

As the war burns on, Clyde and his loved ones must confront deception, death, and destruction. But when the smoke clears, what will be left of their family?

This epic WWII historical fiction series, told through the eyes of the different members of the Cooper family, follows the war through its conclusion.

Excellent addition to the series!

After reading/listening to A Time to Serve I knew I was addicted to this series and A Gathering Storm has provided a necessary fix to this addiction. I noticed in this book I was finding myself making comments to Clyde, Shawn, and Frank. Some of these comments were supportive and there were other times I wanted to provide a swift kick in the backside. Of course, the stories from home figure prominently in this book, and we get to follow Abigail in her adventures as she adjusts to being on her own more than before with only sporadic communications with Clyde. Once again Scott Graff’s narration not only brings each character to life but makes listening to the story to an elevated level. If you read or listened to A Time to Serve, you really need to read or listen to A Gathering Storm. If you are new to this series start with book 1 otherwise you will miss the foundation for what occurs in this book. I received an Advance Reader Copy of the eBook and a review copy of the audiobook from the publisher and chose to provide this review.

Backslide

This series has become a cheap soap opera that uses “to be continued “ as it’s hook. The is some value in the historical content , however does not compare to any of Kate Quinn’s works.
