Review: Mayday

Mayday by Nelson DeMille
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a fantastic techno-thriller. All about a Tokyo-bound supersonic jet flying at 62000 feet hit by a naval missile inadvertently over the Pacific Ocean and how an amateur pilot and a flight steward try to bring the aircraft to safer grounds. The passengers are either dead or suffer from brain damage. The flight crew are all dead. There are only five survivors. The US naval officers in charge, the airline officials and the insurance agency try to cover it up for their own interests. The survivors are now fighting for survival against the turbulent weather, low fuel, malfunctioning controls and people who do not want the airline to land safely.

Fasten your seat belts and enjoy this turbulent ride !
