Here’s the set-up:

World War II. During the attacks on Berlin in the winter of 1943-44, wave after wave of British bombers swept over northern Europe and dropped their lethal loads on the German capital. A fair percentage of the bombers would fail to return from these operations, and RAF planners calculated the life expectancy of the airmen in weeks rather than months.

Therefore it did not seem strange when a Lancaster named D-Daisy landed at its base in England after a bombing run, and a member of the crew was found dead.

However, one person soon came to the conclusion that this man had been murdered. And the person who discovered this happened to be blind since birth. Her name was Daisy and she was the victim’s wife. She was very blonde and very pretty; also very young. Therefore, no one would listen to her. So she was going to have to find the murderer on her own.

Three different islands, on each one of which a person can find their own private paradise.So how can one really attach the word “stuck” when referring to paradise?Stuck in Paradise is about people Amos and his wife Anat met while sailing around the world on a catamaran. These people—rich and poor, happy and sad, foreigners and locals—despite living physically in the paradise of the Pacific, are often deprived of joy and pleasure.This book brings philosophical thoughts about the essence of paradise from the standpoints of a diverse group of people, with different characters, temperaments and backgrounds. Within this mosaic, everyone can find the answers to the question of what their own private paradise truly is.Sometimes even when everything goes your way—you might just be walking down the wrong road.
