UNEXPECTED DETOUR:

COURAGE AND INTRIGUE IN WARTIME SAN FRANCISCO

by Lynn Marie Jackson

When bombs fall on Pearl Harbor, the trajectory of Faye Baxter’s midwestern life takes an unexpected detour. Her fiancé Steve Connor enlists in the Army, and Faye follows him to California for a spur-of-the-moment wedding just days before he ships out. 

 

Eager to contribute to the war effort, Faye joins the workforce in San Francisco, a city awash with jobs, handsome soldiers, cheap cocktails, and nefarious secrets. When she is recruited to serve as a courier for a government intelligence agency, the assignment leads her into a web of misogyny, deception, and espionage. 

 

Will she learn to trust her instincts, value her own opinions, and raise her voice against injustice? Or are the risks too great?
