Who is the bird watcher and why does he steal airplanes? A terrorist, or is he?
When Jerry Christensen's Cessna disappears from its tie-down at Palo Alto Airport-a small white airplane with a thousand clones and a hundred places to hide-Air Traffic Control can't help, and the FBI isn't interested. Jerry, a schoolteacher, is unsuited to pursue a criminal but determines to catch the thief himself. He acts on hunches and makes outrageous plans-his imagination and his background as a pilot his only weapons against serial aircraft thefts and a conspiracy against Hoover Dam. Will Jerry stop the thief in time?
