Walking on Hidden Wings: A Novel of the Roaring Twenties

"A tangled web, a sleuthing adventure, a rekindled romance . . . Walking on Hidden Wings has it all." --Rachel Fordham, author of The Letter Tree
Geneva Ashcroft Hayes's marriage to a newspaper mogul might have been arranged, but the New York socialite is devastated when her husband's plane crashes a few short months after their nuptials. When the authorities suspect murder, Geneva sets out on a wild mission to find his killer--and to prove it wasn't her
When mysterious notes surface pointing to Geneva's guilt in his death, they only strengthen her resolve. She has little to go on except for a detective friend's cryptic list of locations connected to her dead spouse. When the friend also disappears, she trades her sparkling gowns for coveralls and pilot goggles.
Armed with a new name and career as a wingwalker and barnstormer, she travels from town to town in hopes of unearthing clues and locating her missing friend. But Geneva discovers that her past may not belong to her . . . what she once believed as truth may be nothing more than lies and deception.
"Fans of intelligent mysteries, butterfly-inducing romance, and the Roaring Twenties, prepare yourselves--Walking on Hidden Wings will sweep you away to the skies McDaniel's lyrical prose is a delight, and readers will be fascinated by the daring beginnings of aviation. A true gem." --Joanna Barker, author of A Heart Worth Stealing

totally engaging

"Love gives, not takes. It never forces another person to sacrifice but sacrifices itself for the other person." Wow, this book was good. I don't read a whole lot of books set in the 1920s but Rachel Scott McDaniel always amazes me with her 1920s backdrop and the variety of history infused into her stories. I loved this 1922 setting when aviation was starting to become popular among the lay people. Geneva's first person voice was honest, refreshing, down to earth, and so relatable though she's an heiress. I enjoyed experiencing the wealth and glamour of her lifestyle but equally felt the loneliness, anguish, and grief of her position as well. Her short courtship and marriage to Warren was all told in flashback and their romance was absolutely sigh-worthy. I loved their conversations that were full of wit, humor, and tenderness. And Warren! He had me practically melting in my reading chair every time he spoke to Geneva. There is a whole lot of intrigue and mystery in the plot and I was completely taken aback when the villain was revealed. The book is an absolute treat with the perfect blend of history, romance, mystery, and faith. I received a complimentary copy courtesy of Kregel Publications and via JustRead Tours and was under no obligation to post a positive comment. All opinions are my own.
