From the Inside Flap
Everyone in Gail’s small town believes her father is dead when his plane is shot down in World War II. Everyone but Gail’s mother, who has faith that he’s still alive. Gail’s Uncle Ned has lost his faith after being blinded in the war. Though Gail promised her father to watch out for her uncle, his bitterness over his loss keeps pushing her away. It seems only Captain, Gail’s golden retriever, can break through Ned’s shell.
As Gail and Captain try to save Ned from destroying himself, Gail can’t help wondering if she’ll ever hear from her
father again.
From the Back Cover
"Give this to history buffs and to readers in the mood for a good four-tissue cry." — Booklist
"A moving story set in Oklahoma during World War II. The strengths lie in its realistic portrayal of a family and a small community dealing with grief, and its well-drawn characters." — School Library Journal
