Charles Lindbergh thrilled the world by becoming the first lone pilot to cross the Atlantic. Soon after he landed, however, the flight log from the Spirit of St Louis was stolen from the aeroplane's cockpit. That much is fact . . .
Hella Köll, the heroine of Kerry Jamieson's new novel, first encounters the charismatic young flier in Minnesota in 1923--long before he becomes an international celebrity--and falls in love with him.
By 1927, Hella is a rich woman and believes that, despite Lindbergh's fame, they are destined to be together. Her obsession moves from the man to his possessions. Gradually, her desire focuses on the stolen flight log - the ultimate souvenir of her hero.
When the log mysteriously becomes available on the Black Market, Hella and her son, Ari, travel to the home of a shady millionaire in Depression-torn Key West. But Hella soon discovers that she is not the only person willing to go to obtain it.
