Crippled when her horse fell on her, the lithe, tiny and feisty Wing can no longer continue her heady life as a tightrope walker and circus performer. When she receives a mysterious package that contains a memoir written by Helena, the mother who she never knew, Wing learns of her mother's bizarre and ultimately tragic story.
