A daring pilot A woman's murderous power lust Diamonds beyond price A forbidden love story A stolen warbird worth millions "A Rattling Good Ride... really good and totally believable"-Jill McCaw, Soaring NZ Magazine THAT WORLD WAR II P-51 MUSTANG FIGHTER PLANE cutting through grim skies on the cover makes it hard to pass up a flying adventure that cuts to the heart of untold wealth, high stakes, and a forbidden love story with a stunning twist. Angle of Attack by Lee Baldwin almost reads as an innocent romance, until you get it that one of those power-hungry dames is trying to kill off the easy-going glider flight instructor whose worst flaw is trusting everybody. Well, almost his worst flaw. Not that he shouldn't know better... his "associates" have been trying to trap him for years, and now they've upped the ante to rubbing him out. Why? Maybe because a spiteful ex-girlfriend lied to him, and his former crime boss partner made sure he was up in the joint where he couldn't talk. Or maybe s because his paranoid, ex-Navy jet mechanic brother purloined an antique WWII fighter plane. But oh, damn, they are missing the stunt pilot to fly it out of California. Any volunteers? This is fighter pilot fiction from the viewpoint of an innocent convict. Angle of Attack is a very good story - four stars. Held my attention - the first book I've read in the male first-person POV - had a unique aspect-Julie Miles, THC Reviews I am innocent. The blogs refer to me as Cicero Clay, glider flight instructor and paroled convict. But I didn't do it. I can prove it. And no, you don't want to call me by my first name. I am Clay. ...so begins Lee Baldwin's Angle of Attack. In the words of one Amazon reviewer, "Lee Baldwin has captured the pace of James Lee Burke and the descriptive ability of John Steinbeck." An aviation novel, flying adventure and breathtaking forbidden romance, it's all here in one fast-moving package featuring the P-51 Mustang, escort to the B17 squadrons which took down the Third Reich in 1945. The North American Mustang, one of the more capable pursuit fighters of WWII, controlled the Germans in US bombing raids over Berlin. The American Tuskeegee Airmen in particular, an African-American squadron, were extremely adept pilots who saved the lives and missions of many B 17 bomber crews. Ten young guys took off in every one. This dark flying saga comes alive in the worlds of high-performance soaring, aerial combat, WWII warbirds, the world's most expensive diamonds and lovely, quirky women, Baldwin's aviation-themed mystery novel is "a wonderful read" that "pushes all the right mystery buttons," according to other reviewers. A botched diamond theft and a woman's murderous lust for power! There's more happening after dark than a dangerous night flight to New Mexico. Which one of these hotties is it who drugs Clay, then slides into his bed? And who stole his parole agent's diamond necklace? (And what's a parole agent doing with diamond jewelry, anyway?)
