Distant Summer

A TENDER STORY OF YOUNG LOVE Kathie was only sixteen that unforgettable English summer of 1943- too young to be involved in her country's desperate struggle against the Germans ... too young to fall in love. Then one day she found Johnny- his young-old face framed in a shock of bright blond hair- playing the organ in her village church. And love and terror swept into her life. For Johnny was a rear gunner on a Lancaster bomber. Night after night he flew deep into Germany. One night, like so many of his friends, he would probably not come back. "The emotions produced are genuine. A lump or two in the throat and a mist of tears, remembering the tenderness and the horror." - Los Angeles Times "The poignancy of a first love, the maturing of a girl into a courageous young woman, and a vivid evocation of the waste and horror of war." - A.L.A. Booklist "For romance, adventure and plain good reading, curl up with The Distant Summer." -Seventeen
