The Memorandum

The plane broke apart over France. The warning was written two years earlier.

When Tunisair Flight 305 falls from the sky into the Fontainebleau Forest, young journalist Francine "Frankie" Mouilly is assigned to find the story behind the worst air disaster the world has ever seen. The wreckage points to a sudden failure aboard the DC-10. Then Frankie hears about another flight, another cargo-door failure—and an internal memo that warned exactly what could happen next.

The trail leads from Paris to America, and from a dead reporter to an engineer who may know where the evidence is buried. With a former crash investigator and a dangerously capable driver at her side, Frankie follows the paper trail as unseen pursuers close in. Because the truth threatens more than one aircraft maker: it could shake public faith in an entire industry—and the governments tied to its future.

Now Frankie has to get the evidence home before someone makes sure it never sees the light.

One disaster was an accident. The next was a warning ignored.
