Book Overview

A WOMAN STANDS ACCUSED

BUT THE COST TO PROVE HER INNOCENCE

MAY JUST BE HER LIFE


"Absorbing and seductive." - Publishers Weekly

"Plane riveting...like (Grisham and Crichton's novels)." - New York Post

Captain Kate Gallagher has a plane to land and a daughter to get home to. But first, she's got to contend with a confrontational co-pilot, blizzard conditions, and something far more treacherous-a plane contaminated with a lethal computer virus. When the controls refuse to respond to her commands, she has two choices: Turn the plane around or trust her instinct.


One day later, the world's press is picking through the mangled remains of Flight 394 and crying pilot error. To clear her name, Kate must endure humiliation and blame, and the risk to herself and her family, until she comes face to face with the madman who created the virus. There, she uncovers a shocking conspiracy that has already zeroed in on a new target: another plane, another deadly disaster.


With only seconds to save the 262 passengers on board, Kate Gallagher will fight her way back into the pilot's seat and up into the air, in a life-and-death race against time, and a computer virus that is wired, running, and ready to kill again. And the price for saving all those lives may be only one... hers.


"Satisfying and credibly suspenseful." - School Library Journal

"A thrilling ride all the way from the brilliant set-up to the gripping payoff." - Patrick Massett (Friday Night Lights, The Blacklist)

Great Book!

Anyone with or without interest in aviation would love this book! You just can't get enough of it. I would recommend this book to anyone and I guarantee that you'll love it! I would like to thank the author, Mr. Majd, for writing this great book! :)

Gripping

This outstanding book kept me on the edge of my seat I could hardly put it down. I think that Mr Majd captured the strength and courage of this young pilot Kate Gallagher. I couldnt wait until the next struggle that this woman had to endure...and all with fantastic strength. Mr Majd's experience as a pilot was surely evident in this book. I could feel as though I was right there in the cockpit. This would make a great movie.Cant wait for HIGH IMPACT.

Tops! Right up there with the big name authors!! LOVED IT!

This read was a wonderful surpise!! I'd never heard of Majd before this book & it literally had me on the edge of my seat the entire time. Very talented author who will be HUGE one day VERY soon! Characters were very authentic & the technological expertise on Majd's part was stunning! That's what really made the book so fabulous! Especially since the 9/11 attack to see a Mom up there in a plane trying to land it with the chance of dying & speaking to her daughter on the phone--it had me crying,too!! I can't wait for the next book--if it's half as good as this one I'll buy it the DAY it comes out!!
