Summary
Summary
A #1 New York Times bestseller
On a Long Island beach at dusk, Bob Mitchell and JanetWhitney conduct their illicit love affair in front of a video camera, set to record each steamy moment. Suddenly a terrible explosion lights up the sky. Grabbing the camera, the couple flees as approaching police cars speed toward the scene. Five years later, the crash of Flight 800 has been attributed to a mechanical mal-function.
But for John Corey and Kate Mayfield, both members of the Elite Anti-terrorist Task Force, the case is not closed. Suspecting a cover-up at the highest levels and disobeying orders, they set out to find the one piece of evidence that will prove the truth about what really happened to Flight 800-the videotape that shows a couple making love on the beach and the last moments of the doomed airliner.
Editorial Reviews
Editorial Reviews
“With inspired writing and the tension-inducing talents of a true master, Nelson DeMille delves into one of the most mysterious tragedies in recent history—TWA Flight 800…his most entertaining and skillful novel to date.” —Dan Brown, #1 New York Times bestselling author
“What ratchets up the tension in this capably written thriller is what the reader knows but Corey doesn’t as he heads for a showdown…You don’t have to believe in conspiracies or government cover-ups to find his latest engrossing, entertaining, and enlightening.” —Amazon.com
“The pages will turn in a blur as a feeling of dread grows, until the end comes and one’s worst fears are confirmed. Readers will think about this one for a long time.” —Publishers Weekly
“As usual, DeMille spins a well-crafted, timely, and exciting tale. Corey is a cynical and sarcastic ex-cop who’s been around the block at least once too often, while Mayfield is a straight-arrow FBI lawyer who wants desperately to do right for the dead of Flight 800. To do so, they must deal with sinister forces within their own government as they unknowingly count down to 9/11. Strongly recommended for most popular-fiction collections.” —Library Journal
“This real-life tragedy hands DeMille perhaps his finest plot ever, one that involves real feeling and will have you squirming and calling out at various dangers.”
—Kirkus Reviews
“Scott Brick has a clear take on Nelson DeMille’s tension-rich style. Building the suspense and puzzling through layers of questions, Brick leads listeners with a comfortable style. Using enough character voices to keep the portraits clear, he colors Corey with a vocal depiction that lets the wise-guy sarcasm bloom while the ‘won’t-take-no’ instincts run deep alongside. Nicely nuanced and involving.” —AudioFile
