Airframe [electronic resource]. Michael Crichton.
#1  NEW YORK TIMES  BESTSELLER •  From the author of Jurassic Park, Timeline, and Sphere comes this extraordinary thriller about airline safety, business intrigue, and a deadly cover-up.   “The pacing is fast, the suspense nonstop.”— People   Three passengers are dead. Fifty-six are injured. The interior cabin is virtually destroyed. But the pilot manages to land the plane. At a moment when the issue of safety and death in the skies is paramount in the public mind, a lethal midair disaster aboard a commercial twin-jet airliner flying from Hong Kong to Denver triggers a pressured and frantic investigation. Airframe  is nonstop reading, full of the extraordinary mixture of super suspense and authentic information on a subject of compelling interest that are the hallmarks of Michael Crichton.   “A one-sitting read that will cause a lifetime of white-knuckled nightmares.”— The Philaelphia Inquirer   “The ultimate thriller . . . [Crichton’s] stories are always page-turners of the highest order. . . . [ Airframe ] moves like a firehouse dog chasing a red truck.”— The Denver Post   “Dramatically vivid.”— The New York Times
