Book excerpt: It's the 1950s and the Cold War is raging. Danny and Josie-they couldn't be more different when they meet. Beautiful, petite Josie joins the Air Force to escape her home and put some adventure in her life. The quiet, intelligent girl from small-town Quebec meets Danny, the tough, street-wise kid from the West, and they fall in love. They begin their life together at an Air Force base on Canada's West Coast. Their best friends, Ollie and Russ, support them through good times and bad. The two couples call themselves the 'Fearsome Foursome, ' and they share often-hilarious adventures as they explore their new home, breaking all the rules as they go. When off-duty they howl with Danny's crewmates, the 'Wild Dogs' of D Crew. They try to live a life as carefree as the sea and mountains around them-but there are unseen currents ready to drag them under, and heights that may be too high to climb. As they struggle with all the external and internal pressures on their relationship, bad choices by each of them tear at its fabric-until their love is ultimately tested on a dark and lonely country road.
