Book excerpt: Race car driver, Swede Savage, blew into the American racing scene in the late 1960s like his native Santa Ana winds. As a second year driver in the 1973 Indianapolis 500, he was a serious threat to win the world's biggest race. His mysterious loss of control exiting the fourth turn on lap 59 produced one of the most violent crashes in the race's history. His injuries would ultimately prove to be fatal.A pregnant Sheryl Savage witnessed her husband's crash from the grandstand. The daughter born to her three months later, Angela Savage, suffered trans-generational trauma in her mother's womb and would struggle for decades to get her life back on track. Only by going to the Indianapolis 500 to confront her biggest fears, would she find the healing that changed her life forever.
