Testing the Limits

1930s England: will the sunny days of sailing, flying and love ever end?

Restless Eliza McKee sails off to a new life in glamorous London, but when she meets a handsome film star it’s not quite the life she expects.

Eliza’s brother Pete yearns to fly and pilot Billie Quinn can teach him. Pete calls her a sarcastic, scowling Amelia Earhart, but it’s Billie who understands how much Pete needs to learn.

Beautiful actress Izabel Peres hides a secret from the world: then she falls for lawyer Felix, with his buccaneering smile and a case of shellshock he believes is behind him.

Eliza’s old shipmate Harry Bell loves golden Charlotte, but Charlotte only loves gambling — especially with flyboy Pete’s heart.

Soon the days of contentment are fading before the gathering dusk of war, and when a great white barque encounters the coast one foggy night, more than an era of sail finds itself tested to the limits.

“I can’t recommend this series highly enough: the writing is brilliant, the story wonderful, obviously well researched; and you can’t help but fall in love with the characters. Great stuff!”(Amazon review)
