Summary of Cleary Wolters's Out of Orange

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview: #1 I was woken up by the cold, fresh air. I could hear a police siren outside the hotel. The sirens always sounded like they were saying, Uh-oh, oh-oh, uh-oh. I was glad for the invigorating air.#2 The last of the capsules was being eaten by the couriers. They were being transported back to the United States, and they needed to be eaten so that none would be left behind. The couriers were doing this so that they could prove to themselves that they weren t afraid or a tough man.#3 The new method for transporting and concealing the heroin made it possible for me to do it. I was now sewn into the lining of men s suit coats. I simply packed the jackets in my luggage with my own clothes and trusted that the tailors were better at concealing the drug scent from drug-sniffing dogs than they were at sewing.#4 I was extremely afraid of heights. I had become a diver to share the same summer with my best friend, but I was still afraid of heights. I imagined myself walking through the airport exit in Chicago without a hitch, and I felt calm.
