You go to the bathroom on a plane, leave your 3- month old child to be watched by a stranger…to only return and the child is GONE! Listen, this was a RIDE! A mother’s intuition is powerful!
Rounding down to 3.25 ⭐️
A woman and her baby board a flight from Anchorage, Alaska to JFK airport in New York and when she briefly takes a bathroom break, asking a passenger to keep an eye on her sleeping baby—she returns to find her baby missing. This starts an investigation as the crew and FBI work together to find baby Liam in hopes that wherever he is, he’s safe and still alive.
This book takes off immediately and was quite gripping all the way through. I listened to it on audio and it was PERFECT because much of the dialogue in this book is had through flight communication systems which was well executed by the narrator. The timeline of this book is the entirety of the flight and you are immersed in the investigation and feel for the poor mother who’s panicked while passengers are being completely dismissive and unconcerned. This was much like an action movie from the 90’s. Definitely worth the read if you’re looking for a fast paced thriller. Expect it to drag a bit in the middle and for me it was a satisfying conclusion!

I had a hard time getting into this book at first, because I didn't find any of the characters relatable. About halfway into the book, it started drawing me in a bit more, and then I started really getting hooked in. There are some good twists and turns that kept me guessing until the end.
My initial thought was that the premise of kidnapping a baby on a plane, which is a 100% contained and relatively small area to search, was implausible. I'm happy to admit I was wrong. The way the author unfolded the story seemed very plausible to me.

Definitely tense at times and ending was a bit rushed. I still had some questions about why they kidnapped him and the other effects.
