But Didi needed money, so he didn’t linger there, though he liked a glass of whiskey or a glass of grappa on weekends.

The pilot had no choice but to fly through the mist and emerge on the other side. But barely fifteen minutes later, another storm cloud loomed, darker and more menacing than the first.

A miracle, a gift from above. He turned the plane toward it, clinging to the controls, praying they’d make it through.

At about three thousand meters, directly ahead, a small dark cloud appeared.
