Black market airplane parts put countless lives at risk in this terrifying thriller: "The best white-knuckle ride I've taken in a long time" (Lee Child). Alex Shanahan has accepted a new job with a Detroit start-up airline when the death of her friend John McTavish takes her on a detour to Miami. But her trip turns perilous when Alex connects John's murder to the lucrative world of black-market airplane parts. Now Alex must walk into the darkest corner of the business she loves, where profits are valued over the lives of a planeload of passengers—and murder is the solution when millions are at stake. In a world where one faulty part can bring down an airline and catastrophe is an acceptable risk, Alex must tread carefully, because every step she takes could be her last. "Fast-moving and as fascinating as a natural disaster, the novel is suspenseful and electric and has the appeal of an insider story. Ms. Heitman is a former airline employee of fourteen years, and her words ring true." — The Dallas Morning News "An intricate and explosive thriller . . . One of the year's most notable." — Publishers Weekly "Heitman melds the maze of today's airline industry with intrigue and mystery." —John Nance
