She's from that other timeline where the U.S. does not exist and the native inhabitants rule the land. At the age of thirteen, in the year 1980, she encounters Hathaway from our timeline who is stranded in hers. In the span of five years, he reinvents the airplane for her world and Kimileah becomes the first female aviator, saving her land from annihilation. But the world is still a dangerous place. Hathaway has told her about the modern marvels of our timeline and she arrives in our midst in 1985 for one year to bring Hathaway's journal to his people. She's vivacious, intrepid, and beautiful, all in one. She becomes one of us, sharing wisdom, laughter, and song. But most of all she brings a priceless gift from her world to ours―a gift destined to change the course of history.
