"Airman Mortensen is by turns comic, melancholy, and strangely jubilant. It is wonderful that Blake could follow-up Dances with Wolves with such a fine book."
-Jim Harrison

The year is 19656, and eighteen year old Airman Mortensen is in trouble. He has disobeyed an officer's orders, and now spends day after day cleaning latrines and awaiting a court martial on petty charges of which he is guilty. He has no way of knowing the outcome. and the pressure of uncertainty and the dreariness of his life are beginning to erode his will.

That's when he meets Claire.
