A Killing for the Hawks,
By Tom (New York, New York) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Killing for the Hawks (Ulverscroft Large Print Series) (Hardcover)
This center of this story, unlike most war storys, is not about war. " A killing for the Hawks" is almost a romance novel. The story is about Norman McConell, the son of a British couple, who joins the the RFC(Royal Flying Corps) in The First World War. He is assigned to a unit, that has the a British Flying Ace , John Seymour. Along with other characters, like Bush the downtrodden working class man, McConell serves many hours over the front. He also builds up respect for the aristocractic Ace. This respect changes after McConell, accedentally has an affair with Seymour's wife. She confesses that Seymour is a horrible sadist, explaining his extreme pleasure for killing men in areial combat. Seymour finds out about his wife's betrayal and, as he tells her, has a plan to get back at McConell. The books becomes increasingly intense, and it's ending, is totally unpredictable.
