She was from the hills of Yorkshire, country born and bred. He was a city boy. By the stream where they fished they were two young people falling in love. Overhead, the bombers roared, threatening to blow their idyllic world, so young, so fresh, to smithereens.

As always, Shute's writing is both clever and good natured. He's quickly becoming one of my favorite authors.

Another great one!

A bright story that exhibits but doesn't really suffer from being dated. For the time this was written, Shute was quite a feminist. Even then, time has passed.

The action climax is rather intelligent and effective. It's a nice story, above average and made better by a sense of the times and a sense of flight in the bombers of WWII

A wonderful, dared story

The story doesn't sound like much, but like other Shute books, it's easy to get into, very well narrated, and ends leaving you feeling good. It kept me entertained the whole time. I'm looking for which Shute to get next.
