Tim Cassidy

Tim Cassidy, an American spy posing as RAF Captain Sheridan, discovers that his new observer is a German agent photographing British defenses—and a desperate aerial struggle ensues that forces him to assume the enemy's identity and infiltrate a Nazi airfield. Trapped between German suspicion and friendly fire from British fighters, Cassidy must rely on his piloting skills and quick thinking to survive a harrowing escape across the Channel with his cover in tatters.

Subterranean Airdrome
3 pp · War

When an American radio operator detects an enemy armada approaching Alaska, a hidden subterranean airfield springs into action—revealing a bold vision of underground military defense in 1941. American fighter craft launch from beneath the barren surface to intercept the invading force in a fierce aerial clash, testing whether this hidden fortress can turn back the tide of invasion. "Subterranean Airdrome" imagines how the U.S. might defend its northern frontier with cutting-edge, concealed air power.
