Synopsis

From Platform Shoes, A Steve Daniels Mystery 

The year was 1943. He was a pilot in the U.S. Army Air Corps, on loan to the British, flying a reconnaissance mission over occupied France. Shot down, he had to make his way back to England with what could prove to be a very important reel of film taped to his chest. Wounded, he was grounded and sent back to the States to the Air Cadet Base in San Antonio, Texas to teach. Plagued by nightmares stemming from his wartime experiences, he was easy pickings for a woman like her … She was his commander’s wife – beautiful, restless, and the wrong kind of woman for him. What would happen when they got together would be nothing less than murder...

I was flying a recon mission over the province of Normandy. My squad’s assignment was to photograph the beaches and surrounding areas. We assumed this surveillance was in anticipation of the invasion we all knew would be coming soon.

This was my tenth mission since arriving in Britain. I was a member of the Eighth U.S. Army Air Force, fondly known as the “Mighty Eighth.” We were on loan to the Brits and often flew these recon sorties.
