Pilot. Patriot. Spy? Nazi Germany is a dangerous place for a girl with a stutter, but when Ingrid Hartman soars through the skies in her beloved glider planes, she feels safe and free.

It's like a dream come true when her hero, daring test pilot Hanna Reitsch, invites Ingrid on a propaganda tour. But through her work with Hanna, Ingrid learns some dangerous truths about the Nazi regime and a shocking secret mission that could change the course of the war.

When everything is at stake, Ingrid must decide where her loyalties lie.
