I might have gone on being that same Cloris Waldrip, the one I had been for seventytwo years, had I not fallen out of the sky in that little airplane on Sunday, August 31, 1986.

Galvanized by her newfound mission to find her, Lewis leads a motley group of rescuers to follow the trail of clues that Cloris has left behind.But as days stretch into weeks, and Cloriss situation grows ever more precarious, help arrives...
