Synopsis

PRAISE FOR CODE BLACK "In CODE BLACK Philip Donlay firmly establishes himself as a writer of great thrillers. The first hundred pages are breathtaking. His knowledge of aviation is incredible. CODE BLACK is even better than CATEGORY FIVE. A real winner." -Steve Thayer, author of The Weatherman and Wolf Pass "I don't like airplane thrillers, and I never read them. Except this one; I loved it. Philip Donlay is a gifted storyteller, and everything is there-great characters, great plot, and suspense and momentum that don't stop. Put this book on the very top of your reading list." -Brian Haig, Bestselling author of The Man In The Middle and The President's Assassin A terrible blizzard, a grisly accident, a mid-air collision, and that's only the beginning... Minnesota Book Award Finalist - January 2008 Crippled by a high altitude crash, Wayfarer Flight 880, half the roof ripped away, flies on in the evening sky. Seated in the back, amid dead, dying, and wounded passengers, pilot Donovan Nash fights decompression and oxygen deprivation to make it to the shattered cockpit and its dead pilot and grievously wounded co-pilot. With no power, no instruments, and time running out, Nash must land a plane he's never flown... On the ground, his fiancée, Dr. Lauren McKenna, must convince Henry Parrish, an unlikely ally, to help her save the man she loves. Together, Lauren and Henry have to stay one step ahead of an airline whose secret agenda seeks to exploit the impending disaster for its own benefit, as well as heightened security, to execute a daring midair solution to save Donovan and the others on Flight 880. Code Black is the story of a desperate rescue, heroism under fire, and the secrets even heroes must keep. PHILIP DONLAY's experience as an aviator has taken him to thirty-five countries on four continents. He earned his pilot's license at the age of seventeen.
