About this listen

Welcome aboard Pacific Air Flight 385, with nonstop service from Seattle to Honolulu.

Cora is scared to fly again after her husband died in a recent helicopter crash in Pago Pago.

A thousand times she has told herself to turn around, not get on the flight, go back to her young children.

But now, she’s seated in first class across the aisle from the girlfriend of a famous billionaire pharmaceutical entrepreneur.

Halfway across the Pacific, the flight is hijacked. Six people are dead - including the pilots.

Cora is a young widow, mother, and emergency room nurse...but as the world closes in around her, she’s also a pilot’s daughter.

Lost off radar in the middle of the vast Pacific Ocean, the motive behind the hijacking remains a mystery. Not knowing who to trust, Cora works with the man seated beside her, Seattle Homicide Detective Kyle Adams, to save herself, along with the remaining 154 souls on board.

"Please brace for impact."

A tale of five people and many lives affected by them. A video received by Asha, a young mother and cleaner at the airport, convinces her that the lives of her entire extended family depend on her doing as she was instructed after watching her uncle murdered. Cora, recently widowed, is reluctantly leaving her two children with her mother, to fly to a commemorative celebration of her late husband's charity work. Kyle is a detective, a last minute addition to Flight 385, following the trail of a murderer, last seen in Miami. Finally, Elana, famous and pampered, was slumming it in first class on Flight 385 also as she heads to see her newly pregnant sister, whilst her partner, Eddie, CEO of Clark's pharmaceuticals, the beloved and very prosperous company he himself had establised, stays behind for a very important meeting. The story's point of view revolves between these people, told simply and with good dramatic effect, characterization just sufficient to give them substance and a sense of reality.
Despite a definite predictability, this is a good tbriller, made all the better by it's non-hysterical telling: the very straightforward relating makes what is being said all the more dramatic. It feels like it could be real, and that is scary.

The narration is shared: Alison Barnes takes lead voice but is backed by Marvin Catalano and Patrick Zeller, their three voices giving texture to the reading as well as better capturing the nature of the individual protagonists. All are clear, well paced, articulate and with excellent modulation. A fine performance from them all.

My thanks to the rights holder of The Pilot's Daughter, who, at my request, freely gifted me with a complimentary copy. It was a comparatively short read, at about five and one half hours in length, which held my attention fully through the single session in which I hungrily consumed it. Well written and we'll performed, I can definitely recommend this book to all who enjoy plausible life threatening thrillers with revenge aplenty and just a tiny hint of romance.

Nail-bitingly suspenseful

This adventure story is nail-bitingly suspenseful with fairly believable characters. There's a bit too much gratuitous romance for my taste, but I really like the story. Except for the romance, it's quite realistic.

Marcio Catalano, Addison Barnes and Patrick Zeller all perform their respective parts well.

Kept me listening

I enjoyed that there were a male and two female narrators. It adds to excitement of hearing the story. I appreciated it being able to guess what was happening next and why things were unraveling. My Bookclub read this and I’m sure when we get together we will talk for at least an hour about the twists and turns of this story.

I was glued to this story!

The blurb and sample had me wanting to know what was gonna happen next and it was like that this entire book. Very suspenseful and exciting. I do wish it had maybe been a little longer with more character development but overall this was very good! I will definitely be looking into more of this authors work.

Edge of my seat!

This was simple, suspenseful, engaging and not made unnecessarily long by emotional massaging and analysis paralysis of any character.

Great narration!!

This was the best audible narration I have listened to so far. The use of three different voices, including female and male narrators, was outstanding. They all three did fantastic work.

I enjoyed the story and finished it in just two days. Every aspect was very realistic and timely. The ending fell a little flat for me however.
