Story
After moving from a small country town to Seattle, Heather Baxter marries Tom, a widowed doctor with a young son and teenage daughter. A working vacation overseas seems like the perfect way to bring the new family together, but once they're deep in the Australian outback, the jet-lagged and exhausted kids are so over their new mom. When they discover a remote Dutch Island, off-limits to outside visitors, the family talks their way onto the ferry, taking a chance on an adventure far from the reach of iPhones and Instagram.

Story
Ike Randolph has been out of jail for 15 years, with not so much as a speeding ticket since. But a Black man with cops at the door knows to be afraid. The last thing he expects to hear is that his son Isiah has been murdered, along with Isiah's white husband, Derek. Ike had never fully accepted his son but is devastated by his loss. Derek's father, Buddy Lee, was almost as ashamed of Derek for being gay as Derek was ashamed that his father was a criminal. Buddy Lee still has contacts in the underworld, though...and he wants to know who killed his boy.

Story
Providence, RI, 1986. Twenty-nine-year-old Danny Ryan is a hard-working longshoreman, loving husband, loyal friend and occasional 'muscle' for the Irish crime syndicate that oversees much of the city. He yearns for something more and dreams of starting over fresh, someplace far away. But when a modern-day Helen of Troy triggers a war between rival mob factions, Danny is embroiled in a conflict he can’t escape. Now it is up to him to step into the breach to protect his family, the friends who are closer to him than brothers and the only home he’s ever known.

The atmosphere on board the first non-stop flight from London to Sydney is electric. Celebrities are rumoured to be among the passengers in business class, and the world is watching the landmark journey. Flight attendant Mina is trying to focus on the passengers, instead of her troubled five-year-old daughter back at home - or the cataclysmic problems in her marriage. But soon after the plane takes off, Mina receives a chilling anonymous note. Someone wants to make sure the plane never reaches its destination. They're demanding her cooperation...and they know exactly how to get it.

It's something parents do every morning: Rachel Klein drops her daughter at the bus stop and heads into her day. But a cell phone call from an unknown number changes everything: it's a woman on the line, informing her that she has Kylie bound and gagged in her back seat, and the only way Rachel will see her again is to follow her instructions exactly: pay a ransom, and find another child to abduct. This is no ordinary kidnapping: the caller is a mother herself, whose son has been taken, and if Rachel doesn't do as she's told, the boy will die.

Three top secret research scientists are presumed dead in a boating accident, but the kidnapping of their families the same day raises questions the FBI and local police can't answer, leaving them waiting for a ransom demand that will never come. Central Intelligence Agency analyst Chris Leroux stumbles upon the story, and finds a phone conversation that was never supposed to happen. When he reports it to his boss, the national clandestine services chief, he is uncharacteristically reprimanded for conducting an unauthorized investigation and told to leave it to the FBI.

"Stunning and relentless. This is Jaws at 35,000 feet." (Don Winslow)
"The best thriller I’ve read in years. Buckle up." (Adrian McKinty)
"Falling is the best kind of thriller (for me as a reader anyway). Characters you care deeply about. Nonstop, totally authentic suspense." (James Patterson)

A great ride
you know when you have read a good book when your heartrate returns to normal and you playback the adrenalin ride you have just been on
The author clearly knows her stuff with the aviation links that explain how an aircraft works
I felt like i was onboard the aircraft with all the twist and turns of the life or death choices the captain has to make and with the added action on the ground as the FBI and police battle against time
This book is so well written it could be a great movie and i will be looking for other books by this author
I have noted some of the negative reviews but am pleased that i decided to try the book well worth a listen

Dreadful Cheesy Stereotyping
I plodded through this book with gritted teeth and rolling eyes. It's full of all of the worst American stereotypes you can think of. The author writes as though they're narrating some awful cheesy movie from the 80s full of American hero's, brooding men and terrorism.

good story good performance
I really enjoyed this though it felt like it was dragging for the last couple of hours. I was ready for it to be over.
I did get mixed up with the characters, there was a lot to keep track of. the pilot and his family, the air stewards, the fbi lads, the terrorists. I was constantly mixing people up and trying to recall who was who.
the main character (pilot) and his wife were instantly likeable and I rooted for them the whole way through.

This book had such Potential ! characters had no depth , pointless storyline of going back and forth to a previous time which added confusion. New characters appeared .. which seemed pointless to the story - again that all got quite confusing. I had such high hopes for this book. The movie might be good …

Fantastic, compulsive listening.
This story grabs you from the preface and doesn't let go until the end.
One minor niggle, this is one of those books that skips back and forth in time within chapters, maybe the printed book/ebook contained bullet points to signify the skip, I don't know, but a couple times I hadn't realised we'd skipped back in time or location etc until we'd been a bit into the section. It was frustrating but not enough of an issue to dock a star.

Very disappointed
This is a very average novel. The hype has been crazy (and obviously worked as I bought it expecting great things) the characters especially were pretty bad, I just didn't care about them at all, no big surprise in the plot and writing no better that average. No idea where all the hype came from, but do yourself a favour and ignore it.
