When bombs fall on Pearl Harbor, the trajectory of Faye Baxter's midwestern life takes an unexpected detour. Her fianc? Steve Connor enlists in the Army, and Faye follows him to California for a spur-of-the-moment wedding just days before he ships out.


Eager to contribute to the war effort, Faye joins the workforce in San Francisco, a city awash with jobs, handsome soldiers, cheap cocktails, and nefarious secrets. When she is recruited to serve as a courier for a government intelligence agency, the assignment leads her into a web of misogyny, deception, and espionage.


Will she learn to trust her instincts, value her own opinions, and raise her voice against injustice? Or are the risks too great?


PRAISE for Unexpected Detour:

"Lynn Marie Jackson's detail-rich WWII novel about a young woman's decision to change the direction of her life and join the war effort places its readers smack dab in the middle of post-Pearl Harbor paranoia." -Anna Wilcoxson, Author of Secrets and Promises: The Story of an Italian American Family


"This satisfying World War II tale explores the cost of war to a generation of patriotic young American men and women who stood in harm's way on the heels of the attack at Pearl Harbor. It also reveals the depth of their patriotism, the threat posed by subversives who sought to undermine the war effort, the fragility of the human spirit, and the sobering reality that death notices could be served at anyone's front door." -Laura Taylor, Six-Time Romantic Times Award Winner
