"The Great War shakes the world of a spirited young woman and the brave British pilot she loves, taking her from London to her family's magnificent country estate, and sending him into the war-torn skies over France"--

When Britain becomes involved in World War One, Penny Ramsey travels to London to assist her sister Kate with the orphan children she has taken into her home. Penny meets Alex Goodwin, a Royal Naval Air Service pilot in training. Heading off for a dangerous assignment of chasing Zeppelins across the front line in France, Alex discourages a romantic attachment. Penny's letters become his tie to home and normalcy, but will his experiences in war push him beyond God's reach?
