The falling woman : a novel / Richard Farrell.
"Tragedy strikes during a cross-country flight when sudden turbulence causes the jet to come apart in midair. The odds of anyone surviving are nearly impossible. Charlie Radford, a young National Transportation Safety Board investigator, is part of the team sent to determine what caused the crash. When he hears a rumor of a survivor, he assumes it is a hoax. As word of this Ù¢miracleÙ£ reaches the media and Congress, Radford is forced to track down Ù¢the falling woman,Ù£ said to have been found in a barn still strapped to her seat. The woman at the center of the mystery, Erin Geraghty, was facing a losing battle with cancer when she embarked on her flight. With diminishing hope of a full recovery, she had considered herself essentially dead to her loved ones. Now, after the plane crash, she is intent on remaining dead to the world and to her family, to live out her final days in peace. And then Agent Radford arrives at her doorstep. Can he convince her to come forward, and does he have any right to?"-- Publisher description.
"The suspenseful story of a woman with terminal cancer who is the sole survivor of a plane crash, and the young NTSB agent who is sent to investigate"-- Provided by publisher.
