"An Enjoyable Peek Inside One High Sierra Community" according to Dee Long. This entertaining novel fits into what I call a "slice of life" category. The reader transports you to the High Sierras and invites you to experience the comings and goings in a particular community designed by and populated by flying enthusiasts. The characters are well developed and hold the reader's interest, and the action moves along at a steady pace. We enjoyed being a "fly on the wall" of Weeks Mountain and think you will, too.
