The Heart of the Storm — David Beaty

'When an aircraft disappears completely there is usually no evidence as to exactly what happened. This time, we have at least certain pointers as to the possible causes of the accident . . .'

This gripping novel tells of the events leading up to a major air disaster, the disappearance over the Atlantic of a great airliner. It reveals the conflicting pressures that build up in a big commercial airline-and two strongly related love affairs that contribute their share of responsibility for the final tragedy . . .
