While their men patrol the skies keeping the Soviets at bay, some are content to live the life of the Future Homemakers of America -- clipping coupons, cooking chicken pot pie -- but other start to stray, looking for a little native excitement beyond the perimeter fence. Out there in the freezing fens they meet Kath Pharaoh, a tough but warm Englishwoman. Bonds are forged, uniting the women in friendship that will survive distant postings, and the passage of forty years. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.

Out there in the freezing fens they meet Kath Pharaoh, a tough but warm Englishwoman.
