One-time-only printing at a special discount price: an acclaimed thriller about the only two survivors of a devastating plane crash. On a foggy summer night, eleven people—ten privileged residents and one struggling painter—depart Martha's Vineyard on a private jet to New York. Sixteen minutes later, tragedy strikes as the plane plunges into the ocean. The sole survivors are Scott Burroughs, the painter, and a four-year-old boy, the last living member of a powerful media mogul's family. The narrative alternates between the aftermath of the crash and the backstories of the passengers and crew, including a Wall Street titan, a party boy from London, a young woman at a crossroads, and a seasoned pilot. As the passengers' secrets unravel, strange coincidences suggest a conspiracy. Was it mere chance that so many influential figures perished, or was something more sinister involved? As media outrage and accusations escalate, Scott grapples with newfound fame bordering on infamy, while authorities seek the truth from the wreckage. Amidst the suspense, the fragile bond between Scott and the boy illuminates the story, raising profound questions about fate, human nature, and the connections that unite us.
