The Girls of Bomber Command

Bomber Command Girls, Book 1

By: Vicki Beeby

Narrated by: Sofia Engstrand

With an enemy in their midst, can they still protect their fighters in the skies?

Pearl has given up on her dreams of being a journalist after being denied a promotion because of her gender. Joining the WAAF as a radio telephone operator for Bomber Command, Pearl's new job at RAF Fenthorpe serves two purposes – providing an income for her grandmother, and keeping a close eye on her younger sister, Thea, an instrument repairer at another Lincolnshire bomber station.

Pearl befriends Met WAAF Jenny as well as Australian pilot Greg, who she guides home safely during an emergency. Pearl's journalism background doesn't go to waste, however – a series of thefts from pilots rekindles her investigative fire and she is soon caught up in the mystery.

But when all signs point to the perpetrator being her sister, she finds herself up against the clock to prove her sister’s innocence...

Love this author

Entertaining, clean, and my favorite time period. I feel like this was very much about wwii and the feelings behind risking your life each day.

quite uninteresting

this could have been a good book but it was only about pearl trying to control her sister, and greg as well. i thought it would be an interesting ww2 story but instead there was basically zero details about the war. moreso on pearls feelings about greg and how “wild” he was. i wish i wouldn’t have wasted a credit or my time on it but what do you do.
