EAGLE IN THE SKY [047-066-4.9]
BY WILBUR SMITH
Synopsis:
With a dull but awful roar, the Mirage bloomed with dark crimson flame
and sooty black smoke, the wind ripped flames outwards in great
streamers and pennants that engulfed all around them, and David
staggered onwards in the midst of the roaring furnace that seemed to
consume the very air.
Drawn to the sky as though to his natural element, young David Morgan
spurns the boardroom future mapped out for him by his family for the
life of a jet pilot. Then he meets Debra the beautiful Israeli writer
for whom he will fight, in another country's war, at the controls of his
Mirage. Yet the breathless action which brings them together is also
the very tragedy that will threaten to tear them apart.
