A fresh look at the December 7, 1941, events surrounding the bombing of Pearl Harbor. Jett focusses on the fates of four Pan Am Flying Clippers, each filled with influential passengers. The aircrafts' refueling stops included Midway Atoll, Wake Island, Guam, and Manila--all of which were targeted and attacked within hours of Japan's infamous early-morning attack of Pearl Harbor. Stranded in the sky, these civilian airlines--like any US plane in the region at the time--were unexpectedly at risk of being shot down by Japanese military. The Pearl Harbor bombing removed any possibility these four airlines had for US military assistance, and the attack of the refueling stations made it impossible for these airlines to fill up their depleting gas tanks. Consequently, the Pan Am crews and passengers must figure out how to survive during these volatile times in the Pacific Ocean, where neither land, air, nor sea can promise safety from the same Imperial Japanese military forces that devastated Pearl Harbor and brought our nation into the Second World War. The writing is good, and the narrative backbone is strong and gives this historical account a novel-like feel.

From the author of Taking Mr. Exxon and The Death of an Heir comes the untold story of four luxury airliners trapped in the Pacific Ocean on and after the Day of Infamy. In the first week of December 1941, four Pan American Airways System (Pan Am) flying clippers—the largest and most lavish transpacific airliners in the world—took off from the North American West Coast, loaded with wealthy and affluent passengers on their way to exotic destinations. On December 7, 1941, the Imperial Japanese Navy Air Service executed a surprise coordinated attack against the US naval base at Pearl Harbor. Within hours, Midway Atoll, Wake Island, Guam, and Manila—all of which were refueling stops for these Pan Am flying clippers—were targeted and bombed by the same Japanese forces that had devastated Pearl Harbor. Stranded within the vast boundaries of the Pacific Ocean, these civilian airlines were unexpectedly at risk of being captured or shot down by Japanese military. The assault on Pearl Harbor removed any possibility for US military assistance, and the attack of the refueling stations made it impossible for these airlines to refuel their depleting gas tanks. Alone and unreachable, Pan Am crews and their frightened passengers were left with no choice but to make their own way across the volatile Pacific Ocean, where neither land, air, nor sea could promise safety, and do their best to survive—if they could.

Has Jennie stumbled into something she'll never escape? Jennie McGrady is thrilled to be taking another flying lesson from Gram. But when menacing clouds roll in, Gram must take over the controls for a crash landing-and loses consciousness upon impact. Ignoring her survival instincts, Jennie leaves the plane in search of help. She ends up at a commune that appears wholesome and serene, but Jennie soon suspects something sinister. Eric, a member of the Desert Colony, knows the ins and outs of the compound and helps Jennie search for Gram. When they return to the site of the crash, the plane-along with Gram-is missing! But when Jennie suspects someone at the colony, Eric insists there's nothing going on. Is he really so trusting, or is he hiding something? Donovan is the Desert Colony's leader and claims that he's doing everything he can to contact her family. As the days pass, however, Jennie doubts Donovan's motives and begins to think the colony is a front for something illegal. Could he be involved in Gram's disappearance?
