Thank you @SIMONANDSCHUSTERIN for a media copy of the book.
T.J. Newman's thriller novel Drowning is an edge-of-your-seat read that will leave you gasping for breath. Set aboard the fictional Coastal Airlines Flight 1421 from Honolulu to San Francisco, this novel tells the harrowing tale of the passengers and crew fighting to survive after the plane suffers catastrophic hydraulic failure shortly after takeoff and is forced to ditch in the ocean south of Molokai.
Newman wastes no time jumping right into the action. Within the first few pages, the left engine of Flight 1421 explodes in a ball of flames. With no hydraulics, the pilots have zero control of the plane. Ditching in the ocean is their only option for survival. The plane impacts the water with tremendous force, breaking into pieces. Passengers who manage to evacuate are faced with massive fires fueled by leaking jet fuel on the surface. Those unable to get out are trapped inside the rapidly sinking aircraft.
And thus begins a desperate race against time as the Coast Guard and Navy scramble all their resources for an incredibly complex rescue mission. The heart-pounding pace never lets up as Newman alternates between three distinct groups: the rescue coordination unfolding on the surface, the terrified passengers fighting to stay alive inside the plane, and a lone passenger's wife who is herself an experienced deep sea diver.
