Publisher's summary

It is a time of intrigue and adventure. Nick Grant is a young man living in California with big dreams and a feisty girlfriend. He wants to become a Pan American Airways pilot. The Navy’s Aviation Cadet program helps, and he also works part time at Pan Am learning the ropes. Nick helped build the Pacific Bases that support the China Clipper airline route. With quick thinking and luck, he thwarted a Japanese sabotage effort led by Toshio Miyazaki.

Tensions between Imperial Japan and the US are high. When Pan Am announced a new Pacific route to New Zealand, US Naval Intelligence learns that Miyazaki plans to mount another sabotage effort. They activate Nick and send him across the Pacific to ID Miyazaki’s efforts. Nick has frustrated Miyazaki in the past, and the Ninja seeks vengeance. Nick wants Miyazaki dead for murdering his mentor and a high school friend.

Nick flies a clipper to Hawaii, hops a fast US Navy Destroyer to Samoa, and chases Miyazaki across the mountains to exact revenge and save a village from destruction. All the while, his girl sits on the beach wondering why she got involved with a boy who is here today and gone tomorrow.

Fantastic Young Adult Adventure

Samoan Clipper is a fast-paced page turner.

I enjoyed the characters and plot as well as learning the history of the Pacific theater before World War II.

I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys young adult historical fiction.
