About this ebook
A Girl Scout Troop Joins the Battle of the Atlantic
Full of intrigue, adventure, and romance, this new series celebrates the unsung heroes—the heroines of WWII.
Ginny Mathis was finished with nursing school and had no intention of staying rooted in the Outer Banks—then war broke out. With her father away, she feels duty-bound to stay and help her mother and younger sister. While working as a clerk for the Oregon Inlet ferry, naval officers ask Ginny and others to be watchful for German U-boats reportedly spotted in the area. So to help occupy her teenage sister, Ginny enlists the Girl Scout troop she leads to help watch for suspicious activity along the coast.
Timothy Elliott is no stranger to death. As a British reporter working with the M-6, he’s numb to the losses of war after two years of fighting the Germans. Maybe that’s why he volunteered for this mission—to connect with an ex-German naval officer who stole the Furor’s battle plan for the Atlantic war. When the boat giving him passage to New York is bombed near the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, Tim is thrown from the boat and wakes up in the care of a group of young girls.
Ginny follows her sneaky sister on a clandestine mission and discovers the shipwreck victim. Ginny knows she must take charge, but is this man the enemy, or does he hold secrets that could turn the tide of the Battle of the Atlantic in the allies’ favor?

I love the stories of faith that come through the Heroines of WWII series. And this story continued the interesting and captivating books of the series. This was a book about a group of Girl Scouts who discover a stranger on the beach who was basically washed ashore after a tanker attack. Ginny, a sister of one of these Girl Scouts helps the girls but is worried that the mysterious stranger could be a real danger to them all. The book is filled with intrigue and mystery. Definitely the type

This book has a different twist on the World War Two as do most books about the war. "On My Honor" is part of the Girl Scout Pledge that is recited at every meeting of the girl scouts and sets the stage for this most interesting book. The scouts also play an integral part of the happenings in the story. The setting for this book takes place on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. A small island with only a few hundred inhabitants, all known to one another.
