Publisher Description
When a political conspiracy targets the White House’s aircraft—only the nation’s #1 air-crash investigators can save the country.
The White Top helicopters of HMX-1 are known by a much more familiar name: Marine One. The S-92A, the newest helicopter in the HMX fleet, enters service after years of testing.
When their perfect safety record lies shattered across a shopping mall, Miranda Chase and her team of NTSB air-crash investigators go in. They must discover if it was an accident, a declaration of war, or something even worse.
Customer Reviews
Intriguing, fascinating, suspense filled
WHITE TOP is the eighth instalment in ML Buchman’s contemporary, adult MIRANDA CHASE political, technothriller focusing on NTSB investigator Miranda Chase and her team of former and current military members.
Told from several third person perspectives WHITE TOP follows in the aftermath of the crash of one of the newest White Top helicopters, Marine Two, and the loss would affect more than the fleet of Presidential fliers. Their last investigation complete, Miranda Chase and her team of NTSB investigators are called into to dissect the who, how and why, and the results point to human interference and not mechanical problems.
Meanwhile, Miranda Chase, a woman on the autism spectrum scale, is not quite to relinquish control but her second in command is ready to move forward with an investigation of his own.
As per ML Buchman’s style of writing as it pertains to Miranda Chase, the reader is pulled into the world of autism spectrum, watching (or reading) as Miranda struggles, not only with her own emotions, but recognizing small emotional nuances in others.Miranda’s last personal relationship failed in the face of Miranda’s inability to adjust or conform but a new relationship is on the horizon, one that has been developing for a very short time.
WHITE TOP is plentiful and replete with military and political jargon, especially as it applies and refers to the presidential aircraft and the mechanics within. ML Buchman pulls the reader into a suspense-filled, political thriller where the people at the top are targeted, and the person responsible may be someone close. The premise is intriguing and fascinating; the characters are resourceful, energetic and accomplished.
