Price of Fame, Volume 5

By Emily Wendling

Unaware of the outside world, April, imprisoned and isolated, remained oblivious to significant global occurrences like the tragic "Desert One" mission. This covert operation in Iran aimed to rescue American embassy hostages, but ultimately faced insurmountable challenges—mechanical issues, a sandstorm—and ended in disaster when a collision between a rescue helicopter and a transport plane claimed the lives of eight U.S. troops.
