Description
It's July 1948, and peace has been declared in Europe. Sharon Lacey, the formerly fearless fighter pilot, leaves the English home she has known for years and makes her way back to Canada to build a new life. But daily life in postwar Calgary, Alberta, is more ambiguous than Sharon could ever have expected. In wartime, it seemed easy to know who the enemy was. Peace, it turns out, is a very different game.
