Publisher Description

The passengers of Meridian Flight 6—delayed for hours and mistreated by rude and inept airline personnel—have been pushed to the edge. When Captain Phil Knight makes a forced emergency landing in war-torn Nigeria, abandoning his co-pilot to certain death, violence erupts inside the airplane as the enraged passengers attempt the first-ever commercial airline mutiny.

But what they don't know could kill them: The unscheduled loss of radio contact has led NATO and the CIA to believe they have been hijacked by terrorists and must be carrying a deadly chemical weapon into the heart of Western Europe. In the pressurized last moments as Flight 6 approaches, NATO scrambles to uncover the truth about the plane's cargo, while Navy pilots bring the 747 into their gun sights and the lives of innocent passengers hang in the balance.

"A highly interesting, fun, readable, and credible thriller. Nance's passages on commerical airlines ring true as does the mention of air rage. This book is well written, contains believable characters, and is the perfect technothriller for keeping you up late at night! recommended."

    " It was a little slow to get started and I was not sure if I would enjoy reading it. It got going faster. I found it somewhat difficult to follow at times. "

    " Brings up some interesting points when it comes to "air rage," but not one of Nance's best. "

    " For those who haven't heard of Nance, he writes thrillers that involve airplanes. His books are page-turners once you get into them. I don't think he's particularly talented at character development, but I am usually amazed by his plot twists. "

    " Over-the-top, overwrought tale of the worst airline ever, passengers in revolt, government dealing with terrorism plots, rebellion in Nigeria.......I have to admit it was a quick read, but a little too much of everything. "

    " Avoid Nance if you're flying, planning a trip involving flight or thinking about flying in the next year. Otherwise, go for it - the books are so firmly footed in reality that they're a rollercoaster ride for the reader. "

    " A good book, just not quite as good as the other Nance titles I've read. It's scary to think that something like this is plausible. "

    " an ending which i didn't predict. complicated & detailed. as a reader, i can even feel the suspense. like it. "

    " This is a fantastic aviation thriller like Lynn Heitman's novels, that mainly deals with all the going-ons on an airplane in flight. It has lots of action and drama and a hint of romance for this compelling read. A great 4.5 day read. "

    " an interesting premise for a book, although the author clearly underestimated the year in which we would have civilian space travel. however, it did make me want to go into outer space even more myself. not really enough overall development of either the plot or the characters for my liking. "

    " I really enjoyed this book. I listened to it on CD and was riveted. Basically, a guy wins a trip into space and then gets stranded. I tells is story over a live feed and the whole world becomes mesmerized by it. "

    " Not really a sci-fi, but more of a science-based fiction novel. The story is about a customer on a commercial space flight. Very well written, and a real page-turner. "
