Pilot Larry Wadler had the perfect life. Larry has a
beautiful wife, child and loves his life as a pilot that
is until the day it all comes crashing down. Larry's wife
and son are taken and he is forced to land his airplane
in a field allowing everyone on board to be taken
hostage.
Now Larry must live with what he has done, and do his
best to keep everyone on the plane alive. The hostage
takers plan to auction off everyone on the plane and the
people who get the most money will live others will be
killed.
As Larry tries to deal with the hostage takers and
passengers on the plane former FBI agent Xanadu Marx is
called into help. She is multilingual and asked to
translate. The only problem is she just got out of rehab
and her previous actions left her without many friends.
COST OF LIFE has many twists and turns as we watch the
impact decisions have on the characters' lives. This
story line is a new concept on good versus bad and the
purpose behind actions are not always what they appear.
Joshua Corin has a hit with COST OF LIFE a great story
with flawed characters that leave you wondering just what
you would do.
Happy Independence Day. You’re all going to die.
Life can’t be better for veteran pilot Larry Walder. He
has
a great job, a terrific kid, a gorgeous wife—and no
inkling
that tonight will be the end of the world as he knows it.
In
the early hours before the Fourth of July, three men break
into Larry’s home. And as the day lurches on to its
terrifying course, a life is taken, and Flight 816 from
Atlanta to Cozumel, Mexico, vanishes off the radar.
In the air, Larry must find a way to save his family, his
crew, and his passengers. On the ground, disgraced FBI
agent
Xanadu Marx goes rogue, making it her mission to track
down
the missing flight before the hijackers reach their
diabolical endgame. With the casualties racking up and the
world’s busiest airport under lockdown, a message arrives:
This is no ordinary hijacking, no typical hostage crisis.
This ransom is a totally different beast—the first hint of
a
conspiracy that might bring America to its knees.
