Eagle in the Sky by Wilbur SmithMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
This is an emotional and heartbreaking roller coaster ride. It is a story of love, friendship and trust between three characters, David, Joe and Debra. David, a rich multimillionaire Jew, falls in love with Debra, daughter of an Israeli brigadier in the Israeli air force. His love for flying takes him to Israel where he joins the air force, joins the war against its enemies. As tragedy unfolds, both David and Debra are caught in a life fraught with danger. The author then takes us to Africa in the wild bushes where the story progresses and ends with a tragic climax.
The only drawback is the story becomes predictable and too mushy for my liking. This would be apt for romance fanatics who wouldn't mind shedding a tear or two.
