The first planned book will take place in February and March of 1942 as America shifts fully to a war footing and tempers are high. The second book will take place in Portland at the Kaiser Shipyards, where labor clashes with management and an influx of women and minorities in the workplace result in violence and even murder. The third will center on the U.S. Navy's Tillamook Naval Air Station and the death of a flamboyant member of the Women's Air Service. The fourth novel is set later in the war, as a death blamed on one of Imperial Japan’s infamous fire balloons may be more than it seems.
