Jammer Davis has investigated many aircraft crashes— but never one with his daughter on board
Jammer Davis has spent most of his life investigating aircraft accidents. When a small regional jet disappears over the jungles of Colombia, it is a tragedy like dozens of others he has seen... but for one terrible detail— his young daughter, who was en route to a semester abroad in South America, is listed on the passenger manifest.
A distraught Davis rushes to Bogota and bulls his way into the inquiry. When the wreckage is located, it becomes clear the crash was unsurvivable. As the investigation gains momentum, the facts go astray. Two pilots had been shot before the crash, along with one passenger. The possibility of a hijacking looms large as the search begins to focus on two passengers who boarded the plane, yet their remains cannot be found.
Davis uncovers an even more sinister plot behind the entire disaster— one that goes to the highest levels of the United States government. But how could it possibly involve his daughter?
Perfect for fans of Daniel Silva, Tom Clancy, and Michael Crichton

Passenger 19
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
The stakes are personal for Jammer Davis in Larsen's exciting third thriller featuring the airplane crash investigator (after 2011's Fly by Night). Larry Green, head of the National Transportation Safety Board's Office of Aviation Safety, calls on Davis when an ARJ-35 passenger plane goes down in southern Colombia. Three crew members and 21 passengers were aboard, including Davis's 19-year-old daughter, Jennifer. Davis flies the same day to Bogot . At the jungle crash site, two are missing among the dead Jennifer and another young woman, Kristin Stewart, who happens to resemble Jennifer. Other anomalies, such as bullet wounds in the back of the pilot's and copilot's heads, suggest a hijacking. When both Colombian and U.S. officials prove uncooperative, a frustrated Davis takes matters into his own hands. Aided by a drone and some hastily recruited allies, Davis goes on the offensive in some nice action scenes that are followed by some satisfying payback.
