Lone Eagle

It is Christmas, 1940, and Kate is making her debut in New York society. Joe, the brilliant protégé of Charles Lindbergh, seems just out of her reach. As the months pass, they meet again, and although Kate goes off to university and Joe skyrockets to fame in modern aviation, he is always drawn back to her, as a moth to a flame. When the war is over Kate wants a marriage and family - while Joe wants the world. Unwilling to wait any longer, Kate moves on with her life. But when a chance encounter brings them together again, the time has come to make a choice, one that will have profound consequences for the rest of their lives...

Lone Eagle is a novel of extraordinary grace and compassion from a master storyteller.
