An international flight from Hong Kong to Denver experiences a phenomenon that leaves 3 dead and 52 injured. What happened?
Although the technical information was new and interesting, and Casey is a compelling character, this book was not terribly entertaining. Besides Casey, people did not have credible motives for doing the things they did. The plot didn't really add up and the big 'reveal' was something I figured out about halfway through. Accurate portrayal of the media as fear mongers and not interested in the truth but what plays well as a visual was refreshing. A lot of the technical jargon was mystifying and the explanations for it were either non-existant, or unnecessary. I mean, times that I probably could have figured it out myself, there was an awkward interjection of explanation, and there was never an explanation when I was mystified.
Also included were many lines of reports in binary that really seemed to just fill pages.
I will always keep an eye on the slats on all future airplane rides...
