El gran círculo

After being rescued from a capsized ocean liner in 1914 as infants, Marian and Jamie Graves grow up in Missoula, Montana, raised by their dissolute uncle. There, after meeting a couple of aerial acrobats who pass through the city with their dilapidated biplanes, Marian begins her idyll with aviation, which will last a lifetime. At fourteen, she drops out of school and finds an unexpected and dangerous patron: a wealthy smuggler who gets her a plane and pays for her tuition. A deal that will haunt her forever, even as she allows him to fulfill her destiny: to circumnavigate the earth by flying over the North Pole and the South Pole. A century later, Hadley Baxter lands the role of Marian in a film that revolves around her disappearance in Antarctica. Bright, cunning and fed up with hoollywoodian claustrophobia, Hadley is itching to reinvent herself after being part of a romantic movie franchise that has landed her in the clutches of the cult of fame. As she immerses herself in the character of Marian, the stories of both women unfold in parallel until their destinies collide; and with them also their thirst for self-determination, framed in very different spaces and times.
