When Singapore falls to Japan’s Imperial army in early 1942, the
life that Susan Sandyman has lovingly created abroad is shattered.
Forced to flee home to the hamlets of southern England, she can
either succumb to grief or find solace in war work. When a chance
encounter with the elusive Air Transport Auxiliary pilots stirs a
spark of excitement, Susan’s decision is made. Based on the
authors’ own experiences with the ATA, Paid To Be Safe vividly
captures the gruelling training and day-to-day life of female ferry
pilots. To these women, the allure of the Spitfire is more than
just the freedom to fly, but an invitation to start anew. Detailing
their camaraderie, bravery and romantic encounters, this classic
novel explores the depths of personal loss during conflict and the
healing powers of love, family and friendship.
