What would it mean to wake up one morning and find all your beliefs had vanished
in the shifting winds? This is the story of Derek, a luge racer from a former
Eastern Bloc republic. As a child, his skull was surgically altered to make
him the world's most aerodynamic human. Now the winds of change swirling about
him become the greatest test of his resiliency.
