In Love & War Willow Fitzgerald

When the young earl Eileen hopes to marry is lost in action, presumed to be killed over a village near Cambrai, not long after the big battle there in the winter of 1917, she finds she cannot believe he is actually dead and formulates an extremely daring-and to all appearances utterly impossible-plan to find him and bring him home. Firm in the belief that she will find him still living, despite all the bad news and the seeming hopelessness of the whole situation, Eileen faces enormous odds putting her outrageously bold plan into action, and along with Lieutenant Turner, her observer, goes through some intensely harrowing adventures. Initially, these take place in the air over the Western Front and then on the ground behind the enemy lines and in the trenches as she determinedly pursues her quest through every difficulty to locate her friend. Finding him seems a virtually impossible task indeed, but it is while attempting to get back to their own side, and then to safety, that the situation becomes really grim...
