      This is a three book series. No cliff hangers! This is the story of three sisters living in Maryland as the disaster at Pearl Harbor looms, and their own participation during World War II.  The Doughty Women:  With Valor Above All  What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.  ~ Oliver Wendall Holmes  Book 1: The Doughty Women: Katherine  What Lies Behind Us  Katherine “Kit” becomes a war correspondent  Book 2: The Doughty Women: Susan  What Lies Before Us  Susan is a “Government Girl” who joins a million other women working in Washington, D.C. “for the duration” until the men return.  Book 3: The Doughty Women: Lillian  What Lies Within Us  Lillian is a Registered Nurse who joins the Navy Nurse Corps  Book 1 blurb:  While European governments were falling, one by one, to the war machine of the German Reich, Katherine Doughty served ably and well in her assignment as TranSignal News overseas correspondent.  Now she has been transferred to the London Bureau, just in time to endure the privation and terror of the Blitzkreig bombs.  Dedication to her craft can’t prevent Kit from feeling a twinge of envy for her friend, Hallie Vernon, an ATS member who falls in love semi-regularly every few weeks or so. Kit, too, would like to fall in love.  However, she has finally met someone: a mystery man from the London tunnels, encountered one night when the wail of the air raid sirens sent citizens scrambling for safety.  He’s a Texas charmer, this Lew McAllister, and it seems that he’s as interested in her as she is in him. But, after spending time together, he disappears without a word of apology or explanation.  It’s wartime, after all; and the life of each human being has been disrupted. In all the confusion, people are here, there, and everywhere, and it’s difficult keeping track even of one’s nearest and dearest.  Whatever has happened to Lew, whatever kind of mystery he’s gotten himself involved in, whatever sort of character flaws he might be dealing with, Kit can only feel suspicion and doubt.  Yet she can’t help wondering if she will ever see him again.

      This is book 2.  The Doughty Women: Susan  Susan Doughty is a Government Girl residing in Washington, D.C. in May of 1942. Sharing an apartment with two friends at the height of the war effort, she treks off to work every day at the Federal Bureau of Investigation in what has been, until now, a humdrum job.  While she worries about her sister, famous war correspondent Kit Doughty, currently stationed in London and recently married, Susan finds herself yearning for her own adventures. Because, by comparison, her existence seems very tame, very safe. Humdrum.  Alas for Susan. A wish once made cannot be easily unmade.  Her promotion at work, from the fingerprinting division to one more secretive involving sabotage and foreign agents, comes with a new boss. Matthew Crowley is tightly wound, buttoned-up, and greets her with a criticism—either of her performance or her appearance—almost every day. Which does not make for the most harmonious of relationships.  Enter Dexter Mulrooney, a handsome, charming Irishman oddly enough in the same line of business. Secret agent. Operative. Spy. He and Susan have barely begun enjoying a possible relationship when he inexplicably disappears. On some spook-like activities, Susan can only assume.  Just about the time she finds that one roommate, Clara Dunlap, is involved with a married man, and that the soldier lover of the other, Betty Draper, has gone missing in North Africa, her life is further complicated by that fact that she is being stalked.  Be careful what you wish for, Susan Doughty.
