In this historical fiction novel, set in Oyster Harbors in 1929, a young debutant, Lady Antoinette Ashton-Cooper, yearns for a career in journalism and to fly her own plane like her hero Amelia Earhart. After obtaining a job as feature editor for the Barnstable Patriot, she is assigned a clumsy young photographer from Harvard. During their time together on assignments they discover they both want to be independent and make a difference in the world. Fate intervenes as an unidentified body washes up on shore, providing the two with a mystery and an opportunity to become closer. Add into the mix flying lessons, a kidnapping, speakeasies, and a broad cast of characters, and this only scratches the surface of the duo’s adventures. An Immersive blend of history, fiction, cultural changes and romance.
