It’s a ticket to paradise. Flight 868 has nonstop service to San Juan, Puerto Rico. Over a dozen tipsy passengers are off to a destination wedding. A team of high school baseball players are headed to a tournament. The plane is packed with people eager to escape their lives, and others who can’t wait to return to their beloved home.
But sweet anticipation turns to terror when a lightning strike short-circuits the avionics and plunges the plane into darkness. When the lights come back on, a passenger is found brutally murdered, with only a bewildered air marshal to solve the crime. He soon realizes that several passengers are harboring dark secrets, but the identity of the murderer eludes him. There’s only one certainty:
The killer is on the plane.
Thousands of feet above the earth with thunderstorms closing in, the danger outside is as grave as the mounting threat within. Can the captain outrun the storm? Or will the murderer among them bring the plane down first?
“Susan Walter has crafted a riveting locked-room mystery at high altitude. With twists and turns and deadly turbulence, Murder at 30,000 Feet is rife with suspects, shady agendas, and passengers hiding deadly secrets. Keep your trays in the upright position and stay buckled because once you take off, you’re not gonna want to get off this ride.” – Gregg Hurwitz, New York Times bestselling author of the Orphan X series
