Resumen del Editor

An extraordinary story inspired by the real Women's Air Raid Defense, where an unlikely recruit and her sisters-in-arms forge their place in WWII history.

Daisy Wilder prefers the company of horses to people, bare feet and salt water to high heels and society parties. Then, in the dizzying aftermath of the attack on Pearl Harbor, Daisy enlists in a top secret program, replacing male soldiers in a war zone for the first time. Under fear of imminent invasion, the WARDs guide pilots into blacked-out airstrips and track unidentified planes across Pacific skies.

But not everyone thinks the women are up to the job, and the new recruits must rise above their differences and work side by side despite the resistance and heartache they meet along the way. With America's future on the line, Daisy is determined to prove herself worthy. And with the man she's falling for out on the front lines, she cannot fail. From radar towers on remote mountaintops to flooded bomb shelters, she'll need her new team when the stakes are highest. Because the most important battles are fought—and won—together.

This inspiring and uplifting tale of pioneering, unsung heroines vividly transports the listener to wartime Hawaii, where one woman's call to duty leads her to find courage, strength and sisterhood.

Radar Girls

A part of the war a lot of people do not know about especially on Hawaii!
Very interesting story with the Hawaiian setting

Hawaiian Historical Fiction

Predictable. Occasionally not plausable. A nice story with loose ends neatly tied together by ending.

historical fiction

This was unexpected. A delightful mix of history and fiction. I enjoyed following the lives of the radar girls. I laughed. I cried. I could feel myself there at times with the vivid descriptions of the scenery

Historically engaging!

I loved the strong woman, comrades, history, horses, aviation, war, love, loss, family connections & conflicts all wrapped up in an engaging storyline.

World War II and women

I really enjoyed this book, not only because it shows what women did to support the war, but the location.
We lived in Oahu in the late 70’s, and visited many of the sites mentioned in the book. Many of the pronunciations and locales brought back such warm memories.

Talk about girl power you go girls!!!!!

That was an excellent book. I just hope those girls got all the recognition they so richly deserved. Sara Ackerman did a wonderful job of telling a truly amazing story. Cassandra Campbell did an excellent job of narrating this book. Thank you both. I look forward to more of this kind of great book.

Fabulous insight into what the real radar girls might have experienced

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It made me pause to imagine what the Greatest Generation went through in WW II. Loved the women’s friendships.

Also, the narration was very well performed!

Worth reading!

I really like the story, but very much disliked the Audible performance. If I hadn't enjoyed the story itself so much, I probably wouldn't have finished listening to it, the performance of it was that bad.

Excellent story

This story set in the days of Pearl Harbor in Oahu kept my attention all the way through. Being from the Hawaiian islands myself, I enjoyed hearing a historical fiction tale with flavors of the island peppered throughout it!
