It's always fun finding a book by a favorite author that I haven't already read. I was pleased to find this book at a library sale. I was even more pleased to read it.

3 regional airline jets are shot out of the sky by ground-to-air missiles. The chase is on looking for the perpetrators! This book was first published in 2000, so it's oddly prophetic in it's story line.

I enjoyed this book a lot. Even if it did take me a whole weekend to read it.

Another good one in this series. Although written in 2000 still very much actual.

Easy, fast, and too-to-terribly-thought-inducing during the quarantine books. Great for pick up/put down, travel, etc.

Another intriguing plot and a reappearance of characters from past stories. Fairly fast paced and surprise twists.

This is a re-read for me but a welcome one. Three commuter planes crash in various places in the US on the same day. Upon investigation, evidence of missile weapons is found in the wreckage. Usually, Mac and Annabelle Smith are the key players in Ms. Truman's books, in this story they are only occasionally mentioned. The key characters are Max Pauling, a State Department investigator, and Joe Potamos, a reporter on the Washington news circuit. They, and their assorted girlfriends and acquaintances, take the ball and run with it to avoid more panic and to solve the crime. In this story, the murder that occurs in Foggy Bottom doesn't seem to have anything to do with plane crashes but it all ties in at the end. This isn't the best Truman book but it is a good story and one that rings all too plausible with today's news and atmosphere. This is a very good read.

Fairly simplistic writing. Audio book was only 3 CDs.

I love every other Margaret Truman book I've read but this one was just awful. I quit after 20% because life is too short to put up with crappy writing. The head-hopping was awful. The slurry of extraneous info was just inane. I remain disappointed and have moved on.
