Weaver's Needle

A routine flight to New York turns tragic when a flight attendant is hit and paralyzed by a run-a-way food cart. A plane landing in Fresno California suffers a severe bird strike, putting the passengers and crew in imminent danger. An engine explodes on a flight to Ft. Myers hurling a jagged piece of metal into the cabin . . . striking a woman passenger. The life of one man, a senior engineer at the besieged airline, is shattered by these events and the corrupt management that tries to make him a scapegoat. He vows revenge. Armed with insider knowledge and virtually unlimited access to the airline's planes, he methodically plans his retribution. His anger and grief propel this epic novel of love, loyalty, corporate greed, high stakes bluffs in the air and a shocking hijacking that no one could have predicted . . . or thought possible . . . at least not since D.B. Cooper's infamous hijacking over four decades ago.
