I received a complimentary digital copy of this book from the publisher and NetGalley. This review is my voluntary and unbiased opinion.

This is a fast-paced novel that takes you on a thrill ride filled with on the edge of your seat suspense. The author having worked as a flight attendant adds to the reality of the events. Unfortunately, it begins with terrorists looking for justice by holding the pilot hostage. They give him the unspeakable choice of saving his family or the passengers on his flight. They torture the pilot and his family by Facetiming with them. The experienced flight attendant, Jo, becomes an integral part of the story by trying to keep the passengers calm and in control amid the chaos. You will find yourself rooting for Jo and the brave team as they try to survive. You may not want to take a plane ride immediately after reading but you won't need one as you'll feel like you were just on a trip of your life. ( )

I read this because I read nothing but great posts on Twitter/X.
This book fooled me. I thought it was going to be a different take on airplane hijacking books but as it went on I found it so trope-filled, predictable.
Nobody else died except the bad guys (duh!). I mean, give me one or two casualties on the other side to up the suspense of it all.
Author was definitely writing this with the possibility of it becoming a movie. I saw Octavia Spencer and Leslie Jordan in my head as I was reading.
The movie/book would do well for the masses who settle for generic overplayed entertainment. Stereotypes were in full force.

I wanted more from this.
But I’ve learned my lesson. If the majority of a population likes something, it’s not really as great as they say it is. ( )

It's a bit cheesy and not very original but it is absolutely what it says it is, a thriller. It reminded me a lot of [book:Black Sunday|32417] that I read decades ago. Like that one, I fully expect this to be made into a movie.

It's a fun read but I don't recommend reading it on an airplane. ( )

Cried at the end and I rarely cry listening to books, great cast of characters, a thrilling flight for sure ( )

This was a real page turner, and the reader is kept in suspense, working out how the story will turn out.

There are elements that you've seen in other real-life stories but also some carefully thought through good-feel moments.

Highly recommended. ( )
