Overview
A story about fallingāfalling from grace, falling in loveāas well as soaring to heights you wouldnāt know were possible if you never stepped out into thin air.
Itās 1930, and Birdie Williamās life has crashed along with the stock market. Her fatherās bank has failed, and worse, heās disappeared along with his Jenny biplane.
When Birdie sees a leaflet for a barnstorming circus with a picture of Dadās plane on it, she goes to Coney Island in search of answers.
The barnstorming circus has lady pilots, daredevil stuntmen, fire-spinners, and wing walkers, and Birdie is instantly enchantedāespecially with a girl pilot named June. Birdie doesnāt find her father, but after stumbling across clues that suggest heās gone to Chicago, she figures sheāll hitch a ride with the traveling circus doing what she does best: putting on a convincing act and insisting on being star of the show.
But the overconfidence that made her belle of the ball during her enchanted youth turns out to be far too reckless without the safety net of her charmed childhood, and a couple of impulsive missteps sends her and her newfound community spinning into freefall.
