Narrado por: Virtual Voice

It's 1946, and Jamie McCoy has just returned to Boston from combat in the Pacific to learn that his mother has died while he was overseas; his father, a World War I hero and world-renowned aviator, had vanished while attempting a solo flight over the Atlantic many years before. While settling his parents' estate, Jamie is told about some mysterious events leading to his father's flight that convince him to visit the rural Connecticut town where he grew up. There, in the idyllic all-American community of Granbury, he finds that his father's memory is idolized, but that of his mother is despised. As he delves into his family's past, Jamie comes to question his father's heroics and the very meaning of heroism. At the same time, he struggles with memories of his own combat service in the Philippines. Jamie meets and falls in love with Kate Hardesty, a young war widow who helps him uncover the truth and expose the murderous intent of those who desperately want it to remain hidden.
