in London.
It is there she reestablishes a friendship with Parker
Braden, a British fighter pilot with whom she had
become close when he had traveled to the United

married and has two children, she resolves to keep
him at arm's length.
As the war escalates in Europe, and as Parker
and those close to him are increasingly endangered,
