The year is 1972, and the beaches of Los Angeles are the center of
the world. Dropping into the embers of the drug and surf scene is
Suzy Whitman, who has tossed her newly minted Vassar degree aside
to follow her older sister into open skies and the borderless
adventures of stewardessing for Grand Pacific Airlines. In Sela del
Mar, California-a hedonistic beach town in the shadow of LAX-Suzy
skateboards, suntans, and flies daily and nightly across the
country. Motivated by a temporary escape from her past and a new
taste for danger and belonging, Suzy falls into a drug-trafficking
scheme that clashes perilously with the skyjacking epidemic of the
day. Rendered in the brilliant color of the age and told with
spectacular insight and clarity, Fly Me is a story of dark
discovery set in the debauchery of 1970s Los Angeles.
