Maggiori informazioni sul libro
In the immediate future, the world faces twin crises: a dwindling oil supply and the ongoing Middle East conflict, with America suffering the most. The economy is in ruins, and civil violence tears apart a terrified population living in devastated cities and rural poverty. A massive airlift aims to evacuate Americans with overseas connections to safer nations, primarily through an expanded British national airline. Captain Jonah Scott pilots his Jumbo Jet into Kennedy Airport, loading 600 refugees amidst chaos. After a harrowing stopover in vandalized New York, flight Delta Tango departs for London. Just 1,000 miles over the Atlantic, nuclear war erupts in the Middle East. As Scott and his crew listen in despair, international airports fall silent one by one. With fuel running low, Delta Tango desperately searches for a sanctuary from the encroaching radioactive cloud. The flight becomes a harrowing journey of survival, as the crew and passengers confront unimaginable stress while navigating a perilous, toxic ocean. This gripping tale of heroism and suspense culminates in a stunning and inspiring conclusion, highlighting the resilience of humanity in the face of catastrophe.
