On a foggy summer night, eleven people--ten privileged, one
down-on-his-luck painter--depart Martha's Vineyard on a
private jet headed for New York. Sixteen minutes later, the
unthinkable happens: the plane plunges into the ocean. The
only survivors are Scott Burroughs--the painter--and a
four-year-old boy, who is now the last remaining member of
an immensely wealthy and powerful media mogul's family.
With chapters weaving between the aftermath of the crash and
the backstories of the passengers and crew
members--including a Wall Street titan and his wife, a
Texan-born party boy just in from London, a young woman
questioning her path in life, and a career pilot--the
mystery surrounding the tragedy heightens. As the
passengers' intrigues unravel, odd coincidences point to a
conspiracy. Was it merely by dumb chance that so many
influential people perished? Or was something far more
sinister at work? Events soon threaten to spiral out of
control in an escalating storm of media outrage and
accusations. And while Scott struggles to cope with fame
that borders on notoriety, the authorities scramble to
salvage the truth from the wreckage.
Amid pulse-quickening suspense, the fragile relationship
between Scott and the young boy glows at the heart of this
stunning novel, raising questions of fate, human nature, and
the inextricable ties that bind us together.
