Before she can prove she's ready for responsibility , the unthinkable happens. Japan attacks Pearl Harbor--the naval base were her father works--and America is at war! Now Nanea must cope with missing friends and family members, rumors of additional attacks, and lonely nighttime blackouts. As the war wears on, Nanea faces difficult chores and choices.
