Book Description:
On a Long Island beach at dusk, Bob Mitchell and Janet Whitney conduct their illicit love affair in front of a video camera, set to record each steamy moment. Suddenly a terrible explosion lights up the sky. Grabbing the camera, the couple flees as approaching police cars speed toward the scene. Five years later, the crash of Flight 800 has been attributed to a mechanical mal-function. But for John Corey and Kate Mayfield, both members of the Elite Anti-terrorist Task Force, the case is not closed. Suspecting a cover-up at the highest levels and disobeying orders, they set out to find the one piece of evidence that will prove the truth about what really happened to Flight 800-the videotape that shows a couple making love on the beach and the last moments of the doomed airliner.Members who requested this book also requested:

This was the first Nelson DeMille book that I have read, and it was very enjoyable. I am planning to read his other books about Detective John Corey.
DeMille does a great job of keeping the story real, and the book is very enjoyable because of the wit that he has written into John Corey's character.

THIS SOUNDS LIKE THE REAL STORY BEHIND THE UNEXPLAINED FLIGHT THAT FELL FROM THE SKY IN FLAMES

Great book. Demille weaves fiction and fact into a great novel that connects TWA disaster with World Trade Center. I was skeptical but he did a great job.

A gripping thriller based on true events - the crash of TWA Flight 800.

Chuck P. from PACKWOOD, WA wrote on 4/8/2008...I have read most if not all of Nelson Demille's books and I loved them, this one is no exception. This will keep you turning the pages, I had a hard time putting it down. If you like Demille's work you'll enjoy this book.
From the cover: July, 1996 - a man & a woman who are married (but not to each other) make love on a Long Island beach as a video camera records them - and something more. Out over the ocean, TWA Flight 800 suddenly explodes with 230 victims on board. The government's verdict is mechanical failure. But the videotape may tell another story - if it can be found. Now, on the 5th anniversary of the crash, 2 members of the Federal Anti-Terrorist Task Force set out to reopen the case: John Corey, an ex-NYPD detective, and his wife, Kate Mayfield, a career FBI agent.
Ann Marie K. from CHESTER SPRGS, PA wrote on 3/16/2007...This is more of a guy book, but interesting
Detective John Corey shows off his biting wit in this fast read with the usual great plot by Demille.
Kevin & Kari K. from SUWANEE, GA wrote on 2/7/2007...Fast paced and exciting
"The pages will turn in a blur....Readers will think about this one for a long time." Publishers Weekly
COnspiracy of TWA 800 flight that was lost, either shot down or a mechanical failure brought it down. Good story.
Susan O. (I love John Corey; he's a great character. This is a pretty good novel if you don't mind being a little depressed.
A novel about the Flight 800 and the Twin Towers. DeMille looks at all the theories about the explosion of Flight 800 over Long Island. A tough book to put down. DeMille is a great story teller.
"A fast-paced treat...surprising turns...John Corey is surely one of the most fun alpha males in the fictional world." -- Denver Post
