Synopsis
Radar can detect an approaching aircraft, but it cannot reveal who is watching the operators. In India, Gale Janes serves as a technically skilled WAC radar operator, directing anti-aircraft fire and helping to protect military camps and aircraft from Japanese attacks. Yet the technology she handles is itself a target, and every coded message or concealed movement may expose Allied plans to enemy surveillance. Beyond the restrictions placed on women in frontline service lies the active combat role Gale seeks. Her expertise carries her into a military adventure shaped by espionage and counter-espionage, where technical precision matters as much as courage. A concealed base in tropical forest, a rocky station overlooking Burma and remote mountain temples create a shifting field of operations in which air and ground forces, military intelligence and suspected spies converge. Secrecy governs both the machinery of war and the people entrusted with it. Radar operations and coded communications give the novel an unusual technical focus, while comradeship and deception sharpen the danger surrounding the campaign to return to Burma and support China. Gale's position brings women's military capability into direct contact with the demands of wartime service, making her knowledge essential amid hidden observation and open conflict. This book was out of print for decades and is now republished by Alpha Editions. It has been restored for today's and future generations. This edition is not just a reprint - it's a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
