Set against the turbulent backdrop of World War II, Silver Wings Santiago Blue is a sweeping, passionate saga that chronicles the courageous women who answered their country's call by joining the Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASP) program — daring aviators who flew military aircraft across the United States so that male combat pilots could be freed for the front lines. Janet Dailey weaves together the lives of several unforgettable women — each driven by love, ambition, and an unshakeable desire to prove their worth in a world dominated by men — into a rich tapestry of sacrifice, sisterhood, and longing. Dailey, best known for her emotionally charged romantic fiction, here broadens her canvas to deliver a work of considerable historical weight, grounding her characters' personal dramas in the very real and largely unsung story of female military aviators. Her signature warmth and intimate prose style give voice to a generation of women who soared above convention — and the question of whether love or duty will claim them in the end lingers long after the final page.
