Twelve-year-old Sora and her family live under an iron set of rules: No travel without a permit. No criticism of the government. No absences from Communist meetings. Wear red.

The plan is simple: Sora and her family will walk hundreds of miles to the South Korean city of Busan from their tiny mountain village. They just need to avoid napalm, frostbite, border guards, and enemy soldiers. But they can't. And when an incendiary bombing changes everything, Sora and her little brother Young will have to get to Busan on their own.

The first young man Angela falls in love with is Travis who has a secret past. Through his own guilt and depression from his sister's death, he lacks the urgency to consummate their love. Getting no satisfaction, she begins passionate love affairs with two brothers, Jarrod and Jason Marziotti. Unaware their father is a member of the Web, she is marked for assassination. Fleeing from her assassin, Angela falls into the strong arms of Cody Chilton who has returned to Lake Mont to solve the mystery of his missing brother.

Wealthy people and well-bred racehorses add a touch of southern-style and a feeling that dreams still come true and the good guy (or girl) can win against all odds.
