The Disappearing Act: The Impossible Case of MH370 by Florence de Changy
4.0
I'm really interested in real life mysteries and the disappearance of MH370 is one that has fascinated me since it happened in 2014. It's incomprehensible how a large aircraft can just disappear, and all these years later we still do not truly know what happened to it.
Florence de Changy does an excellent job of compiling all of the public information together, combined with insider knowledge and private interviews. She calls out all of the many inconsistencies and includes many voices that have previously been ignored or disparaged by the media.
It did throw me off at times when certain certain pieces of information seemed to be given undue prominence in the book, however I appreciate that this is difficult when so many sources need to stay anonymous! I was worried we weren't going to get a summary of the information or the author's opinion but the last chapter absolutely blew me away. I enjoyed how de Changy took all of the elements of the investigation and put forward an incredible but totally believable account of what could have actually happened.
If the MH370 fascinated you like it did me, then I highly recommend this book.
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
