What this book is about
Michael Crichton's thriller follows Casey Singleton, a QA vice president at a fictional aircraft manufacturer, who investigates a violent incident aboard a trans-Pacific flight. Crichton's research-driven procedural approach is on full display; the novel is fascinating about aviation, manufacturing, and corporate media dynamics. Lighter on violence than his science fiction; the thriller elements are about corporate conspiracy rather than monster attacks. For adult readers of intelligent thrillers.
