Time of Flight

It is 1931, and the world has taken to the air: 'You couldn't switch on the wireless these days without hearing news of the latest feat by Miss Johnson or Commander Kidson; the newspapers, too, were full of their exploits...'

For blind War Veteran Frederick Rowlands, the craze for flying which seems to have affected all ranks of society holds little interest--after all, he is never likely to set foot in an aeroplane... But then a chance meeting with a famous flier draws him into the glamorous--and dangerous--world of aviation, and he finds himself caught up in a web of suspicion, jealous rivalry, sexual betrayal, and murder.
