A review by siili
58 Minutes by Walter Wager
3.0
A major snow storm has hit in the east coast and it affects the airports as well. JFK is still taking planes in when suddenly everything in the tower goes dark and the phone rings. Terrorist who simply calls himself "Number One" has taken control of the JFK airport and left nineteen planes circling around it's skies in a snow storm with very low fuel. If the U.S. Goverment doesn't do as he commands, the planes are doomed. But Number One hasn't taken account of a one police officer, who will try to stop him before it's too late. Can he do it in 58 minutes?
Straight-forward story with action. Lots of stuff cramped in a pretty short book, with quite a few characters in it, though you only need to remember the main ones in order to follow the story properly. Also if you've seen the movie Die Hard 2, you know what will happen, though the book has the story a bit different of course. The story itself isn't that special, but still the book was fast and entertaining enough to read. 3 stars.
