( ) As Mitch Matthews and his five-year-old daughter Lilly check-in for a flight from Hong Kong to New York over the North Pole, odd characters are already being introduced in curious incidents. Then as the book blurb notes: "A flight disappears over the North Pole. No distress calls. Vanished into thin air." What happens is a well balanced matter of conjecture and innuendo with international and individual tensions rising as each page is turned to the very end. To me, this is one of the better eco-thrillers I've read in a good while, and I read a lot. Buckle up, there's turbulence and mayhem on this flight, all realistic enough to give you goosebumps. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
A routine commercial flight disappears over the North Pole. No wreckage. No transponder signals. Mitch Matthews is writer struggling to make ends meet when his wife's brother offers them a first-class seat on a flight from Hong Kong to New York. When his wife needs to stay behind, it becomes an opportunity for some quality daddy-daughter time with his five-year-old Lilly. At check-in, they run into a strange Norwegian arguing with a huge Russian. A mysterious redhead is guarding a package in the business lounge. But everything is fine ... right up until the event. Within hours of Allied Airlines 695 disappearing, a massive international search is launched. Aircraft and ships are dispatched from Russia, America, Canada, and Norway. How can a modern airliner simply vanish in one of the most heavily monitored places on Earth? Global tensions rise. The media and grieving families whip into a frenzy. The armed forces of America and Russia tip the world toward the brink of an apocalyptic war. Weeks later, found on the ice in a chance discovery, the journal of Mitch Matthews reveals the incredible truth behind the disappearance of Allied 695, and what really happened in the Polar Vortex.
