Audio Book Summary

On a foggy summer night, eleven people--ten privileged, one down-on-his-luck painter--depart Martha's Vineyard on a private jet headed for New York. Sixteen minutes later, the unthinkable happens: the plane plunges into the ocean. The only survivors are the painter Scott Burroughs and a four-year-old boy, who is now the last remaining member of an immensely wealthy and powerful media mogul's family.

Was it by chance that so many influential people perished? Or was something more sinister at work? A storm of media attention brings Scott fame that quickly morphs into notoriety and accusations, and he scrambles to salvage truth from the wreckage. Amid trauma and chaos, the fragile relationship between Scott and the young boy grows and glows at the heart of this stunning novel, raising questions of fate, morality, and the inextricable ties that bind us together.

Kristin Hannah raves, 'Noah Hawley really knows how to keep a reader turning the pages... a complex, compulsively readable thrill ride of a novel.'

Winner of the 2017 Edgar Award for Best Novel and the 2017 International Thriller Writers Award For Best Novel

    There was way too much description about irrelevant stuff that had no bearing on the plot. The plot seemed week. This book starts with a crash then walks the reader through the life of each passenger. Each passengers life started a new mini book. I felt like I was starting several books over and over. A good overall message about a corrupt press. Overall I kept reading.

    Interesting book, like the way he infused personal stories with plot. Narrator was fair, not great. Thought the author tried to hard to be "literary", lost excitement of plot at times. Felt like he was trying to hard to be thoughtful. But, would recommend.
