--------------------------------

In a hangar at Los Angeles International airport, a cargo plane tears itself apart.

In South Africa, a passenger jet crashes into a popular tourist attraction.

The two tragedies seem unconnected, but disgraced air crash investigator Tom Patrick has a very bad feeling about this...

Blunt and bitter, Tom’s not a popular guy. He's already fighting to keep his job and, without hard evidence or official backup for an investigation, he’s forced to go it alone.

But when shocking clues plunge him into a conspiracy that threatens millions, Tom must risk everything to stop planes - and passengers - falling out of the sky like bloody confetti.

Ironically, for a book about plane crashes it's a total "airport novel". Basic, clichéd and you've forgotten most of it within 5 minutes of finishing it.
