520			_aAfter being rescued from a sinking ocean liner in 1914, Marian and Jamie Graves are raised by their dissolute uncle in Montana. There - after encountering a pair of barnsorming pilots passing through in beat-up biplanes - Marian commences a lifelong love affair with school and finds an unexpected patron in a wealthy bootlegger, an arrangement that will haunt her for the rest of her life, even as it allows her to fulfill her destiny: circumnavigating the globe by flying over the North and South Poles. A century later, movie star Hadley Baxter is cast to play Marian in a film centered on her disappearance in Antarctica. Scandal-plagued and trapped in her role as a Hollywood wild child, Hadley is eager to redefine herself after getting fired from a romantic film franchise. Her immersion into the character of Marian unfolds alongside Marian's own story, as the two women's destinies and thier hunger for sel-determination in vastly different places and times collide. Epic and emotional, meticulously researched and gloriously told, Great Circle is an astoouding feat of storytelling and an exhilarating tour de force.
