At
Niagara
Falls,
Toby
O'Hara
offers
rides
over
the
rushing
water
in
a
red
and
blue
striped
hot
air
balloon.
The
balloon
is
a
day
job
for
Toby,
his
night
work
is
to
continue
to
perfect
his
father's
design
for
a
flying
machine.On
the
other
side
of
the
Atlantic,
Ursula
Bridgewater,
an
independent
woman
from
Liverpool,
is
ungraciously
dumped
by
her
fiancé.
Ursula
turns
to
the
thrill
of
travel
as
an
escape,
and
chooses
a
young
orphan,
Sally
Walker,
as
her
travelling
companion.
But
Sally
is
never
going
to
be
quite
as
prepared
for
the
land
of
freedom
and
opportunity
as
Ursula
-
and
certainly
not
ready
to
accept
Toby
O'Hara's
invitation
to
see
Niagara
from
a
great
height.Together
these
indomitable
characters
are
lifted
by
small
acts
of
bravery
to
find
-
surprised
and
heartened
-
that
what
once
seemed
terrifying
is
in
fact
the opposite...
