"The book was heavily promoted and had the added hook of being 1st published work of a flight attendant. I read the synopsis...zzzzz...formulaic, right? NOT. There were twists, turns, very interesting characters and flashbacks but it all came together with the narration by Steven Weber. He was amazing. The plot was similar to a lot of action movies, but Weber adding life to all the characters had me riveted. This is a great way to spend a few hours and I'm looking forward to TJ Newman's next novel while I stock up on more Steven Weber narrated audio books."
