Descripció de l’editorial
One man’s truth. A nation’s downfall.
Speedbird 117, a Boeing 787 flight to New York, takes off like any other flight from Heathrow. Except this plane will never reach its destination. The cause? Taher, an utterly ruthless terrorist with a score to settle.
With the country’s Secret Service on red alert, senior analyst Stephen Holm is given an ultimatum: find Taher, confiscate his devastating surface-to-air missiles and bring him to justice, or witness his nation’s descent into disaster.
Rebecca da Silva, meanwhile, accepts a seemingly routine job in the Philippines for a wealthy businessman. Little does she know that this will set a course in motion that she is unable to stop, a course that leads, inevitably, to Taher.
With time running out, Holm and da Silva must work together: failure is not an option.
An absolutely scintillating thriller from bestseller Mark Sennen, perfect for fans of James Deegan, Mark Greaney and James Swallow.

Very good storyline
I found the plot, characters, and storyline excellent, and would normally give such an exciting book a 5-star rating. So why the 4 stars?
It’s about the reading experience, and mine was diminished by the author’s use of single quotes for dialogue. I read using TTS (text-to-speech), where I have my reader device read the text to me. I do this not for disability reasons, but because I am a slow reader, and using TTS accelerates my read speed and improves retention. But the software gets confused with the single quotes, because it sees an apostrophe as a closing quote. Therefore ‘don’t ‘ is read as ‘don tee’, and ‘we’ll as we el el’. It drives me nuts! So much so that I would not consider reading other books by this author.
