A daring pilot, a mysterious disappearance, a story that will take your breath away.

Seized by the Sun tells the remarkable story of Gertrude “Tommy” Tompkins, a woman who defied expectations to become one of the elite 126 female pilots of World War II. As a member of the Women’s Airforce Service Pilots (WASPs), Tommy fearlessly ferried powerful fighter planes like the P-51 Mustang across the country.

But on October 26, 1944, Tommy vanished during a routine flight, leaving behind an enduring mystery. What happened to Tommy? Was it pilot error, mechanical failure, or something more sinister? Seized by the Sun is a gripping account of Tommy’s life, her contributions to the war effort, and the ongoing search for answers. Perfect for young adults interested in:

  • Women's history
  • Aviation
  • Unsolved mysteries
