Drowning
ByPublisher Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * SOON TO BE A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE FROM WARNER BROTHERS PICTURES * “Reads like Apollo 13 underwater.” —Don Winslow * “Masterful.” —Patricia Cornwell * “A stunningly vivid tour de force!” Gripping. Shocking.” —Brad Thor
Flight attendant turned New York Times bestselling author T. J. Newman’s adrenaline-fueled thriller about a commercial jetliner that crashes into the ocean and sinks to the bottom with passengers trapped inside—and the extraordinary rescue operation to save them.
Six minutes after takeoff, Flight 1421 crashes into the Pacific Ocean. During the evacuation, an engine explodes and the plane is flooded. Those still alive are forced to close the doors—but it’s too late. The plane sinks to the bottom with twelve passengers trapped inside.
More than two hundred feet below the surface, engineer Will Kent and his eleven-year-old daughter Shannon are waist-deep in water and fighting for their lives.
Their only chance at survival is an elite rescue team on the surface led by professional diver Chris Kent—Shannon’s mother and Will’s soon-to-be ex-wife—who must work together with Will to find a way to save their daughter and rescue the passengers from the sealed airplane, which is now teetering on the edge of an undersea cliff.
There’s not much time. There’s even less air.
With devastating emotional power and heart-stopping suspense, Drowning is an unforgettable thriller about a family’s desperate fight to save themselves and the people trapped with them—against impossible odds.

“Wow, Wow, Wow.
I read this book in one sitting, edge of your seat tension.
Pretty sure I will not fly for a long time after reading this.
A terrifying situation to be in and I would like to think I would be one of the stronger people and be helpful to others, but would more likely be one of the weakest members and go completely to pieces.
Such an emotional read and you can't help but become invested with the characters and the rescue attempt.”

“Fasten your seatbelt for this one! This was hard to put down and I finished it in no time. Full blown action from the beginning, likeable characters but one (fuck you, Andy!) and a strong plot. While reading I kept thinking that this should be a movie and I was happy to find out that there will be one. I’ll surely watch it. I’m curious about the author’s other work so I’ll be picking up the other books too, but enough plane crashes for now.”

“My heart was in my throat for this entire book. The action starts on page one and goes throughout the ENTIRE book. It is TERRIFYING and I was GLUED. It plays out like a movie and I gobbled it up. It’s heartbreaking, it’s emotional, I cried and I cheered. What a FANTASTIC story, a must read!!!”
