‘Amazing . . . Intense suspense, shocks and scares plus chilling insider authenticity make this one very special’ LEE CHILD
‘FALLING is the best kind of thriller (for me as a reader anyway). Characters you care deeply about. Nonstop, totally authentic suspense’
JAMES PATTERSON

You just boarded a flight to New York.

There are one hundred and forty-three other passengers onboard.

What you don’t know is that thirty minutes before the flight your pilot’s family was kidnapped.

For his family to live, everyone on your plane must die.

The only way the family will survive is if the pilot follows his orders and crashes the plane.

Enjoy the flight.

From real-life flight attendant T. J. Newman, who wrote this book at 35,000 feet while crisscrossing the country on redeye flights when her passengers were asleep, FALLING is a high-concept thriller built around a chilling question Newman would ask pilots, only to watch their faces go pale with fear: What would you do if before a flight, terrorists kidnapped your family and told you that if you did not crash the plane, your family would be killed?
