Raymond Ulysses Ledbetter is an impossibility of humanity. After narrowly surviving the crash of his P-51 Mustang into the Austrian Alps during WWII, then-18-year-old Raymond made the harrowing climb down the mountain and into legend. Now, in defiance of the laws of aging, his sights are set on fulfilling a life-long dream - seeing Mt. Everest with his own eyes and via his own two feet. Hiking alongside Raymond through the incomparable Khumbu is young journalist Joe Vogler, who hopes to make his mark in the world of social-justice news. Little does Joe know that Raymond's old hiking boots hold a historical secret that will turn this adventure on its head.
