Description
Airliner thriller with a gripping premise. After losing two engines, a jumbo jet attempts a forced landing in severe storm conditions, resulting in one passenger's death. The crew and survivors are left stranded on the snow-covered summit of a 14,000-foot mountain, facing extreme peril from exposure and lack of oxygen. As the situation unfolds, a mountain climbing team becomes stranded alongside them, with no food, medical supplies, or means of descent. Janet Gordon, sister of the pilot and airline operations officer, must navigate a complex web of challenges, including a blackmail threat, media attacks, and an airline on the brink of bankruptcy. This tense thriller will keep you on the edge of your seat. Not suitable for those who shy away from intense situations, this book is a gripping pacey read that explores the human condition in the face of catastrophic circumstances.
