Seven-year-old Che, raised in privilege by his New York grandmother, is kidnapped in 1972 by Dial, a young Vassar professor who has agreed to bring the boy to his parents--former student radicals who are wanted by the FBI, and while Dial finds her task much more complicated than she had imagined it would be, Che looks at the time on the run and in a seedy Australian commune, as a grand adventure and chance to bond with Dial who he has come to regard as a mother.
