Set against the arresting beauty of the American Southwest, Spinrecounts the story of young Edward Slavin, orphaned at age seven when his parents die tragically in the crash of a small plane his father is piloting. Edward's obsessive quest for a father ultimately leads to self-discovery and the realization that, no matter who we are or how we live our lives, we are all orphans in many ways.
