Books, Manuscripts
Philly Delaney risked everything during the war. From flying planes for the Air Transport Auxiliary corps, aka the 'Attagirls', to working with the Bletchley Park codebreakers, and life-or-death missions as an SOE agent in France, she and her colleagues pushed their courage - and their luck - to the limits. Joining biographer Kendra and her family on the stunning, sun-drenched Île de R,́ Philly is ready to reveal her extraordinary life story. But she has another reason for being there: she's never given up searching for her beloved pilot husband, Ben. Shot down during a dangerous mission, this is the only place left where she might discover what happened to him. Listening to Philly's war stories, Kendra's young son Finn decides to use his own unique skills in maths, logic and persistence to track down Ben's final resting place - and the answers that Philly longs for.
