Marcia Alvarez was a survivor, a woman whose life had been put on hold as she cared for her elderly, invalid father, a cantankerous Air Force veteran who, among his many idiosyncrasies, claimed to be D.B. Cooper, the most notorious hijacker in U.S. history. But after he passes away, he leaves her a posthumous gift with far-reaching consequences: a chance to regain her own sense of self, to live a life she can finally call her own. Musician Lucien Devereaux lost everything when Hurricane Katrina obliterated New Orleans: his home, his possessions, his sense of himself as a man. He survived the catastrophic storm, but came out on the other side broken, a shadow of his former self, struggling to once again move forward. Drawn together by fate and the hope for redemption, Marcia and Lucien join forces to search for Lucien’s missing daughter, a search that takes them both to places they never dreamed existed. Together they follow a trail of clues that leads to a shocking conclusion few could have predicted.
