Cassie Trent thought it was just another routine inspection. As a veteran airline technician, her sharp eyes have saved flights beforeâbut nothing prepares her for the chilling discovery of a hidden bomb wired deep inside a Boeing 737 scheduled to depart within hours.
When officials dismiss her warning as paranoia, Cassie makes a fateful choice: she boards the plane anyway, determined to stop a catastrophe no one else believes is real.
At thirty thousand feet, surrounded by oblivious passengers, Cassie turns to the only person she can trustâair marshal Ryan Keller. But Keller isnât convinced. To him, sheâs a nervous mechanic with a wild story. Still, something in her fearâand her resolveâforces him to listen.
Together, in the claustrophobic belly of the jet, they race against the ticking clock of a device designed to erase every life on board. Each wire cut could trigger disaster. Each second lost brings them closer to annihilation. And someone among the passengers may be watching, waiting for the bomb to do its work.
Trapped between duty and panic, Cassie and Keller must risk everythingânot just their lives, but the fragile trust they place in one another. The fate of the plane, and everyone aboard, will be decided before the wheels touch down.
