Book excerpt: When Dr. Hope Sze flies to Los Angeles to reunite with her soul mate, John Tucker, she expects Botoxed blondes with Brazilian wax jobs, not terror at 35,000 feet in the air. Yet on their way home, with 1000 miles to go and nowhere to land, she and Dr. Tucker must strive to save one man’s life. Hope and Tucker have no surgical equipment. No surgeon on board. And, as first year family medicine residents, almost no experience. But right this second, they’ll try anything. Especially Hope, because minutes before, she might have accidentally helped to kill the man sprawled at her feet. "Tachycardia-inducing." Dr. Anna-Maria Carvalho, MD, Emergency & Aviation Medicine “Awesome. A real page-turner.” Dr. Ben Alkan, Trauma Surgeon "Medicine, murder, mayhem, and the most nightmarish story about airlines at the holidays since Die Hard 2. Laugh, learn, and cringe as medical MacGyver and human s**t magnet Dr. Hope Sze faces down lovers and killers, all before the seatbelt sign gets turned on for landing." Dr. Frank Warsh, author of The Flame Broiled Doctor "Wonderfully captures the tensions of managing crises, mingled with the wit, improvisation, and humour used to survive them. Great characters with personality quirks that many docs will recognize." Dr. Mark Soth, Intensive Care Unit Specialist "I don’t think I have ever read a book so many times, and I am really excited to read it again! I love it. It kept me up all night. I had to tell the whole airline about it." Anne Zoeller, flight attendant PRAISE FOR THE HOPE SZE SERIES #1 Mystery Selection—CBC Books: Human Remains headlines with Louise Penny and Maureen Jennings in CBC Holiday Gift Guide One of the best Canadian suspense books to read at the cottage ... a scarier-than-ever medical mystery. Margaret Cannon, The Globe and Mail, on Human Remains One of the best crime novels of the season. CBC’s The Next Chapter Mystery Panel, on Stockholm Syndrome "Narrating in a sprightly style while sharing some of the nitty-gritty of a resident's job, Hope Sze is an utterly likeable character." Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine, on Terminally Ill “Although the tone is light, the author is not afraid to introduce darker themes. The three intertwining mysteries and Hope herself provide a narrative by turns entertaining and insightful.”—Publishers Weekly, on Terminally Ill

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This moment-by-moment account of a major airplane crash on a beautiful and treacherous mountainside puts the reader at the pilot's side, describing the flight, its catastrophic ending, and the aftermath. At 7:05 a.m. on February 19, 1955, TWA Flight 260 took off from the Albuquerque airport for a short flight to Santa Fe. To avoid flying over the Sandia Mountains, the plane's approved air route was a dogleg running north-northwest from Albuquerque, then east-northeast into Santa Fe. But at 7:08 a.m. Flight 260 was headed directly toward Sandia Ridge, almost entirely obscured by storm clouds. A local resident who saw Flight 260 overhead observed that if the plane was eastbound, it was too low; if it was northbound, it was off course. At 7:12 a.m. the plane's terrain-warning bell sounded its alarm. Both pilots saw the sheer west face of the Sandias just beyond the right wingtip––an appalling shock considering they should have been ten miles further west. Reacting instantly, they rolled the plane steeply to the left, pulled its nose up, and started to level the wings. It was their final act. Hidden by the storm, another cliffside lay directly ahead. When they struck it, they were still in a left bank, nose high.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Charlotte Dennett has written an excellent book summarizing the geopolitics of the Middle East historically through to current events. . . . This is an amazing piece of historical writing. . . . Students, foreign affairs ‘experts’ and officials should have this work as required reading."—Jim Miles, The Palestine Chronicle Unraveling the mystery of a master spy’s death by following pipelines and mapping wars in the Middle East In 1947, Daniel Dennett, America’s sole master spy in the Middle East, was dispatched to Saudi Arabia to study the route of the proposed Trans-Arabian Pipeline. It would be his last assignment. A plane carrying him to Ethiopia went down, killing everyone on board. Today, Dennett is recognized by the CIA as a “Fallen Star” and an important figure in US intelligence history. Yet the true cause of his death remains clouded in secrecy. In The Crash of Flight 3804, investigative journalist Charlotte Dennett digs into her father’s postwar counterintelligence work, which pitted him against America’s wartime allies—the British, French, and Russians—in a covert battle for geopolitical and economic influence in the Middle East. Through stories and maps, she reveals how feverish competition among superpower intelligence networks, military, and Big Oil interests have fueled indiscriminate attacks and targeted killings that continue to this day—from Jamal Khashoggi’s murder to drone strikes. The book delivers an irrefutable indictment of these devastating forces and how the brutal violence they incite has shaped the Middle East and birthed an era of endless wars. The Crash of Flight 3804 provides important context for understanding the region, while bringing new questions to the fore: To what lengths has the United States negotiated with the Taliban, Al Qaeda, and ISIS to secure Big Oil’s holdings in Syria, Iraq, and Yemen? Was the Pentagon’s goal of defeating ISIS a fraudulent pretext for America’s occupation of Syrian eastern provinces and a land grab for oil? What part does Ukraine play in the energy-dominance struggle between the US and Russia? Did the infamous double agent Kim Philby, who worked for the British while secretly spying for the Russians, have anything to do with Dennett’s death? Why have the US and China made North Africa the next major battleground in the Great Game for Oil? Part personal pilgrimage, part deft critique, Dennett’s insightful reportage examines what happens to international relations when oil wealth hangs in the balance and shines a glaring light on what so many have actually been dying for.

This book was released on 2010-01-21 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Thomas Jefferson wrote his epitaph, he listed as his accomplishments his authorship of the Declaration of Independence and the Virginia statute of religious freedom, and his founding of the University of Virginia. He did not mention his presidency or that he was second governor of the state of Virginia, in the most trying hours of the Revolution. Dumas Malone, author of the epic six-volume biography, wrote that the events of this time explain Jefferson's "character as a man of action in a serious emergency." Joseph Ellis, author of American Sphinx, focuses on other parts of Jefferson's life but wrote that his actions as governor "toughened him on the inside." It is this period, when Jefferson was literally tested under fire, that Michael Kranish illuminates in Flight from Monticello. Filled with vivid, precisely observed scenes, this book is a sweeping narrative of clashing armies--of spies, intrigue, desperate moments, and harrowing battles. The story opens with the first murmurs of resistance to Britain, as the colonies struggled under an onerous tax burden and colonial leaders--including Jefferson--fomented opposition to British rule. Kranish captures the tumultuous outbreak of war, the local politics behind Jefferson's actions in the Continental Congress (and his famous Declaration), and his rise to the governorship. Jefferson's life-long belief in the corrupting influence of a powerful executive led him to advocate for a weak governorship, one that lacked the necessary powers to raise an army. Thus, Virginia was woefully unprepared for the invading British troops who sailed up the James under the direction of a recently turned Benedict Arnold. Facing rag-tag resistance, the British force took the colony with very little trouble. The legislature fled the capital, and Jefferson himself narrowly eluded capture twice. Kranish describes Jefferson's many stumbles as he struggled to respond to the invasion, and along the way, the author paints an intimate portrait of Jefferson, illuminating his quiet conversations, his family turmoil, and his private hours at Monticello. "Jefferson's record was both remarkable and unsatisfactory, filled with contradictions," writes Kranish. As a revolutionary leader who felt he was unqualified to conduct a war, Jefferson never resolved those contradictions--but, as Kranish shows, he did learn lessons during those dark hours that served him all his life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The pilots were attempting to return to Honolulu but with the failure of both engines on the right wing of the UAL 747, combined with massive structural damage, there was a very real possibility that they would be required to ditch. The thought of ditching into the ocean in the dark of night is daunting. The flight attendants could have secured themselves in their jump seats but instead stood in the aisles to prepare their passengers. The roar of the air rushing by at a speed of 190 to 200 knots was deafening in the cabin. The flight attendants could only “mime” the instructions for passengers to look at their Safety Cards and to demonstrate the donning of life vests.” “The Aloha 737 was severely damaged, literally now a convertible and was in emergency descent with speeds of 280 to 290 knots. The roar of the wind was deafening. The forward flight attendant had been sucked out of the cabin as it ruptured. The aft flight attendant was seriously injured. The mid flight attendant, suffering minor injuries and being the only one able, rather than securing herself in her jump seat, she crawled up and down the aisle calming her passengers and assisting the injured.” Flight Attendants Lost offers a fascinating look into what went on inside the airplane from actual aircraft accident and incident case studies spanning decades and countries. The book covers the intense training, the ongoing vigilance, the behind the scenes team work and the committed actions of flight attendants in emergency situations. It uncovers the complexities of aircraft safety design and makes sense of the reasons behind safety rules and regulations making this book an educational must read for air travellers. Flight Attendants Lost is not only an eye-opener but is a reassuring read that will make you look at flying differently. It is also a beautifully written memorial tribute to the hundreds of flight attendants who, over the years, have given their lives In the Line of Duty.

Book excerpt: Margaret Larson the young beautiful African-American widow of WKXR TV station owner, Sam Larson — who is twenty years her senior — twice divorced and part of Peoria, Illinois all White upper class. When Sam is suddenly killed in a bizarre Halloween plane crash Margaret is devastated but determined to carry on in spite of being spurned by all her society friends and Sam’s children from his previous marriage. Sam’s protégé and friend, David Walker — a Denzel Washington look-alike — who was also in a mixed marriage, until his wife Kate was killed in a ‘Unabomber’ type explosion, comes to Margaret’s rescue and helps her pick up the pieces of her shattered life. Soon David is running WKXR TV. But he can’t or won’t forget about his friend, Sam Larson, and their conversation on the night he died. His curiosity about the crash leads him to Thompson Airfield where the NTSB has brought the doomed plane. Unfortunately, for David, he has an out-of-body experience and is forcibly ejected from the hangar. Confused and embarrassed, David decides it’s best to leave while he still has a good reputation. However, on his way to his car, he spots a man in the process of searching what he believes is his car. He confronts the man only to find out it’s he who has the wrong car. As an apology, he invites the man to lunch. The man turns out to be Frank Roberts — field agent for the NTSB — and the agent in charge of investigating the crash of Flight 404. Frank Roberts is an embittered disillusioned man whose own marriage ended in divorce. He feels his career is going nowhere because of the NTSB’s new policy of promoting minorities. Together, this odd pairing sets out to find the real reason why Flight 404 fell out of the sky on that fateful Halloween night. Meanwhile, Margaret is slowly coming to grips with the death of her husband until on a lonely Thanksgiving night while looking at old snapshots, she realizes that Sam is the second one in a group of friends to die in a fatal plane crash. She tries dismissing her suspicions as grief. But when she finds an ominous email sent to her husband by an unknown party she is certain that the plane crash which killed her husband was no accident. Sam was murdered! Soon Margaret joins forces with David and Frank to find a killer before another plane falls from the sky.
