This is Stormy Ferret's story. Cargo pilot, captain of an Air Ferrets SkyFreighter, she earned her name by delivering her freight on time through every weather the night could set against her. Her destiny, she thought, was her dependability. That was true until, on a run south from Seattle to Salinas, she plunges into supernatural tempest like nothing she has ever known. Flying north in his sleek FerrJet, captain Strobe Ferret hits equally violent weather. As chief pilot of the giant MusTelCo, his long experience at the control has taught him to accept whatever the sky set before him. He had adjusted to life alone in the wild pure arena of air. The two pilots meet by chance in the most powerful twin storm ever to sweep Airway Victor 23, her voice in the night helping him survive, his voice helping her. Coincidence turns to destiny as they battle through the clouds toward an unscheduled landing and a meeting that will forever change their lives -- and the lives of thousands of others. Air Ferrets Aloft is a tale of skill and commitment, of powerful coincidence set in motion by unseen forces from another dimention, of the life-changing consequences when like sould meet, of love discovered after all hope for it had passed.
