I would like to share Accidental Heroes by Danielle Steel. Charlie found this book in the free bin at our Library and brought it home to me as a surprise. I was so happy to receive this book because I didn’t have anything to read and we didn’t have the money to purchase a book this week. If your looking for novels remember to check your Library’s for there free or reduced price books. If you have books sitting around you don’t want don’t them to the Library or Senor Citizen Center.
I wanted to read Accidental Heroes because it was about the Airport which is where David works and After reading the novel I am so glad all David does is load the planes and doesn’t have to go out on trips. Although our friend Stephanie was a Stewardess who went through 911 and I could imagine her having to go through what the people on this airplane had to face.
All I can say is thank God Bernice Adams followed her instinct we a lot of people would have lost there lives. Accidental Heroes is full of suspense and drama but romance at times. All I can tell you is at times the story does get turbulent make sure you fasten your seat belt because its going to be a bumpy ride but as long as you believe and stay on task everything will turn out okay.
About:
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A decorated former Air Force pilot. A pregnant flight attendant. A dedicated TSA agent. The fates of these three, and many others, converge in Danielle Steel’s gripping new novel—a heart-stopping thriller that engages ordinary men and women in the fight of their lives during a flight from New York to San Francisco.
On a beautiful May morning at New York’s John F. Kennedy airport, two planes have just departed for San Francisco—one a 757, another a smaller Airbus A321. At a security checkpoint, TSA agent Bernice Adams finds a postcard of the Golden Gate Bridge bearing an ambiguous—perhaps ominous—message.
Her supervisor dismisses her concerns, but Bernice calls security and soon Ben Waterman arrives. A senior Homeland Security agent, still grappling with guilt after a disastrous operation in which hostages were killed, Ben too becomes suspicious. Who left the postcard behind, which flight is that person on, and what exactly does the message mean?
As Ben scans the passenger manifests, his focus turns to the A321, with Helen Smith as its senior pilot. Helen’s military service and her tenure with the airline have been exemplary. But her husband’s savage death in Iraq was more than anyone should bear, leaving her widowed with three children.
A major film star is on board. So is an off-duty pilot who has just lost his forty-year career. So is a distraught father, traveling with the baby son he has abducted from his estranged wife. Sifting through data and relying on instinct, Ben becomes convinced that someone on Helen’s plane is planning something terrible. And he’s right. Passengers, crew, and experts on the ground become heroes out of necessity to try to avert tragedy at the eleventh hour.
In her stunning novel, Danielle Steel combines intense action with stories of emotionally rich, intertwined lives. As the jet bears down on its destination of San Francisco, strangers are united, desperate choices are made, and futures will be changed forever by a handful of accidental heroes.
