Description
Leila Payson moves from the present to the future seamlessly and tries to make her visions real. She teaches high school, but she is more than her job and her role as dutiful daughter, she is a kind of pioneer. Meanwhile, mystery follows Leila. She is haunted by early trauma, but is it memory or a dream? She confides only to her funky, no-nonsense best friend, Caroline. Then there's her first love, Nick, weaving in and out of her life. Her vision had sent her to South Africa in her twenties, where she met Baruti, an occupational therapist who works with people with disabilities. This experience changes her way of teaching and relating to others. She keeps up a correspondence with him about education, disability, and social justice. Now, years later, one of Leila's students learns he is losing his hearing. When he asks her to join his support team, she does, and begins to rethink her occupation. Meanwhile, her friends are on their own journeys. She accompanies them with humor and patience, and they reciprocate; all in support for positive work and for love. Maria is a female Don Quixote, sending aid to family and friends back in Cuba; Dov is a gay event planner living in Miami Beach, who falls in love with a Cuban bird guide; Charles is a "key rat" who loves racing; and Mark is an occupational therapist who also loves nature, as Leila does, and works to improve the lives of people injured or born with disabilities.
But their paths are fraught with challenges, even danger. Leila worries Maria's charity will go too far, Dov is separated from his love, and Mark must make a choice between her and his work overseas. For each, the horizon beckons, but will their paths converge?
