Publisher Description

This electrifying novel chronicles the lives of two strangers connected by the tragic loss of parents in a hijacked Paris-New York flight. As an adult, Samantha, one of the children set free by the terrorists, has become obsessed with the hijacking. Under the guise of her senior thesis, she pulls Lowell, the son of a victim, into a web of terror, death, and betrayal that he has spent his adult life trying to forget. Janette Turner Hospital probes with astonishing acuity the murky worlds of espionage and intelligence gathering, and the painful meaning of survival.

"I really enjoyed the premise of this book: how a plane hijacking affects the different people involved. I particularly empathized with the plight of the 6 year old girl. I couldn't put the book down. I read it many years ago and still have a strong memory of some parts."

    " a book about a fictional hijacking and the effects on the relatives of the people hijacked. Not incredibly uplifting, but well written and somewhat suspensful. "

    " Huh. Dunno. I used to be in love with anything by this author, but I was a word-enamoured university student. Now I think she's sometimes a tiny bit too in love with her own craftiness. Starts out interesting, gets a little marshy in the middle, ends nicely. "
