This book is the second in a series I guess, but I had no problem reading it as a stand alone book. I was not sure about this book when I first seen it on Bookishfirst. But, after reading the sample I was pleasantly surprised that I was immediately pulled into the fast paced story line. Thea Paris, the main character, is escorting two former child soldiers from Africa to London to their adoptive parents when the jet is hijacked and forced to land. Thea must use her knowledge and skills to try to save the passengers. The book gets a little complicated at times. But, all in all it is a well written thriller. The author does a great job with the details and the characters. I would recommend this book.
