No author has taken us into the world of high-altitude danger and heroism with more authenticity and suspense than John J. Nance. With riveting bestsellers like HEADWIND, BLACKOUT, and PANDORA'S CLOCK, he has carved out a territory all his own. In TURBULENCE, America's most trusted aviation authority takes off with his most dramatic story yet.

John J. Nance's latest high-speed drama begins with an airline in crisis because of poor customer service. The passengers of Meridian Flight Six have endured many hours of abusive treatment by rude and inept airline personnel and have been pushed to the breaking point. A baby's life is threatened inadvertently by a mean-spirited flight attendant. A troubled surgeon, traumatized by his wife's recent death, is tested by a defensive, insecure airline captain. And a young South African man racing home to Cape Town is consumed with worry about his missing mother.

When Captain Phil Knight makes a forced emergency landing in a small, war-torn country, then takes off, abandoning his copilot to certain death, violence erupts inside the cabin, as enraged passengers attempt the unthinkable: Mutiny. But what they don't know could kill them. A misinterpretation by U.S. intelligence and Captain Knight's poor training combine to plunge Flight Six into mortal danger.

Mesmerizing in-flight details, a compelling cast of realistic characters, and spine-tingling action once again prove Nance to be "a wonderful story-teller" (The Chicago Tribune) and "the King of the modern-day aviation thriller" (Publishers Weekly).
