Boots by Kate Hannigan
5.0
Boots features the last of the three girls, Mae, who brings her friends Josie and Akiko along on a visit to her two aunts, Black pilots Willa Brown and Janet Harmon, when they learn Nazi spies are going to attack Chicago. But the pilots are kidnapped by henchmen of the newest and most powerful villain, the Metallic Falcon. The kidnapping launches the three super-powered girls on a new mission -- to get to the Eiffel Tower in Paris, France, to rescue all the other super heroes that've gone missing before it's too late.
They manage to smuggle a ride across the Atlantic and meet two new teen-aged super-heroes, the Parisian Light and Golden Lion (who's British) in their first full-pitched battle with the Falcon. The Infinity Trinity, however, loses their super powers, just like all the other super heroes did.
But that won't stop the girls. In fact, it gives them the advantage of surprise, because the Falcon's not looking for three teens, he's looking for three super heroes. And they manage to sneak behind enemy lines to find the rest of the super heroes.
I won't spoil how it ends. This was a great ending to the trilogy, and we loved the comic-book pages, by Patrick Spaziante.
Enjoy!
