Publisher's Summary

The crew of a fly-by-wire business jet find themselves on a flight across the Atlantic Ocean unable to control the aircraft's direction, altitude, or speed. The aircraft's flight control system and engines are all controlled by computers that react to pilot inputs unless something goes wrong. Something has gone horribly wrong.

The captain was once an Air Force fighter pilot and should be more than capable of handling any aircraft problem. Her mechanic, an electrical engineer and former Air Force maintenance officer, is in the jump seat but is also stumped. The solution is held by the designer of the aircraft's flight control computers, but his loyalties are divided.

On the one hand, he believes his organization will bring down world capitalism and using these aircraft as weapons are the means to that end. On the other hand, he learns his secret organization may not be what he thought it was.
