Book excerpt: Adventure icon Hannah Lyndsey Brown was a throw back, a kind of human time capsule who embodied the morality and values of a different era. She'd spent years crossing oceans, solo, on her own sailboat, away from urban society and her home country. She came home to new rules. Now she was about to go on a journey she'd never signed up for . . . one that would be a masterclass that would change her forever. ""When Pigs and Horses Fly"", is a novel that shares adventure icon Hannah Lyndsey Brown's memoir of an incredible journey/adventure that takes her across a raw, uncensored America, and then on a wild voyage up to Alaska's Prince William Sound, and, finally, an accidental sojourn in a mysterious, secret place hidden in plain sight in the Hawaiian archipelago. There are warnings, too, in this book that the reader dare not ignore; under the new rules people don't fuss over your serious injury or death at the hands of those you trust most.
