Sixteen-year-old Brent Bishop is sent on an unusual journey of repentance--building wind toys across the land--after he inadvertently causes the death of a young woman.
Brent\'s whirligigs bring hope to others, but will they be able to heal the wounds deep inside himself?.

He\'s sent on a journey of repentance--a cross-country trip building whirligigs.
Brent tries to end it all in a fatal car crash, but instead he finds an unlikely beginning.
When he blows his chances with the girl of his dreams in front of everyone, he\'s devastated.
With a family always on the move, popularity and the ability to fit in quickly are vital to Brent Bishop\'s high school survival.
