Escape from the Clock Tower Told by Willis Stephenson
A narrator recounts a harrowing escape from confinement inside a cathedral clock tower. He reveals being pursued by enemies, then experiences a descent through the clock’s metal interior, a perilous ascent as the weight is wound, and a leap to safety onto a roof. He travels to Australia, Alaska, and finally settles in a large U.S. city under an assumed name.
