If you like airplanes and want to follow a group of young people as they fly around Europe and solve a murder mystery that has international consequences, then this is the book for you. It is 1937, and Stella North is chosen to represent Britain in the Europe’s first air race for young people. The race is supposed to showcase camaraderie in a time of political turmoil but results in murder instead. This is a fast-paced book that I enjoyed reading. Stella and her competitors were fun to get to know; although, a couple of them have rather sad backstories. This book provides an interesting glimpse into a politically charged time.
