Publisher's Summary

Coroner Jenny Cooper investigates… A tragic accident or a terrible crime? When Flight 189 plunges into the Severn Estuary, Coroner Jenny Cooper finds herself handling the case of a lone sailor whose boat appears to have been sunk by the stricken plane, and drawn into the mysterious fate of a ten year-old girl, Amy Patterson, a passenger on 189, whose largely unmarked body is washed up alongside his.

While a massive and highly secretive operation is launched to recover clues from the wreckage, Jenny begins to ask questions the official investigation doesn’t want answered. How could such a high tech plane – virtually impregnable against human error – fail? What linked the high powered passengers who found themselves on this ill-fated flight? And how did Amy Patterson survive the crash, only to perish hours later? Under pressure from Amy’s grieving mother, and opposed by those at the very highest levels of government, Jenny must race against time to seek the truth behind this terrible disaster, before it can happen again…

    "forgettable storyline but very well read"
    Would you try another book from M. R. Hall and/or Sian Thomas?

    I'd probably try another

    Add more gritty content


    What about Sian Thomas’s performance did you like?

    Excellent English accents!


    Do you think The Flight needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

    No, the story didnt really have any where to go to

    Story
    "British accents and women readers"
    What made the experience of listening to The Flight the most enjoyable?

    The plot


    Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

    Not really, due to the reader


    Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Sian Thomas?

    ANY man with an American accent. She probably is perfect for European listeners, but in America we need a Scott Brick.


    Any additional comments?

    Perhaps its me, but my American ears have trouble following a pronounced British accent. The only way I can follow the narration is to concentrate absolutely, to the exclusion of anything else. Since I normally do my work (I'm a bookbinder) while listening, I often lose the story and have to back track. In addition, her different voices are so close that I lose track of who is talking. Finally is my admitedly prejudiced opinion that women can't do men's voices (women, feel free to boo). Men have no trouble doing women's voices, but women seem to either growl or as in this case, don't even bother to make it distinct. Miss Thomas is probably charming and competent, but she has a limited range of distinct voices and all come out sounding the same.
