The German Luftwaffe attacks Britain from the skies. With no allies, she stands alone. Her fate hangs in the balance. As the first Axis aircraft streak across English Channel airspace, so begins a battle for the ages; one that will determine the trajectory of the war. Braced for engagement on their individual fronts, the Littlefields plumb the depths of courage and ingenuity to defend their beloved Britain. Fresh from the slaughter of Dunkirk, youngest brother Jeremy is called upon to create a French Resistance network composed of former naval officers. At MI-9 headquarters, Claire Littlefield has devised an intelligence coup that could change the tide of the war. But will it work? Lance, captured and far from home, puts his resiliency and resolve to the test. And frustrated at being sidelined from active combat, Paul is unaware that he is being groomed for a role beyond his imagination. A sweeping story of war filled with intimate, day-to-day details of those closest to danger, EAGLES OVER BRITAIN is a captivating tale of bravery, sacrifice, and one family's fight to bring Britain to victory.

The Blitz is in full force. Bombs rip relentlessly through London, destroying buildings and rattling confidence. How much more can the country--and one family--take? As Britain falls further into chaos, the Littlefields--ever-dedicated--must keep fighting. Their country needs them now, more than ever, and each sibling will be tested in ways they never imagined. Jeremy prepares to fly a mission without his trusted Eagles. But the sudden capture of someone he loves will force him to choose between fulfilling his duty and following his heart. Still held as a POW at a high-security facility, Lance grows more and more desperate to make an escape. And thousands of miles apart, Claire and Paul--both armed with top-secret war intelligence--experience a similar struggle: They know more than they can say. And that knowledge places their siblings in grave danger. Meanwhile, at home and under German occupation on Sark Island, the Littlefield's parents struggle as food becomes scarce and the fire in their bellies is joined by a gnawing hunger. Then, in a move that shocks the entire world, Germany invades Russia. But is it really a surprise to Churchill? What will it mean for Britain--and for the Littlefield family?
