Synopsis
French Minister of Industry, Georges Michelet, is a man of the
right with presidential ambitions. When he is approached by
Walter Claussen, a former East-Bloc spy who has spent 30
years in the States developing a plan to sabotage American
aviation, he cannot turn down a diabolical offer. Claussen, for a
hefty fee, promises to destroy Boeing's leadership in the global
marketplace. Airbus, the unwitting beneficiary, will revive the
French economy and catapult Michelet into the political limelight.
Steven Le Conte, a young American journalist manqu�, lives in
Paris near Sophie Marx, retired bureau chief of The New York
Times. Sophie, who is writing a series on Michelet, persuades
Steven to befriend Michelet's daughter, Nicole. When the two
fall hopelessly in love, Steven is plunged into an ugly dilemma.
Frank Warner, head of the National Transportation Safety
Board in the US, has failed to make sense of the random crashes
that have plagued Boeing aircraft and terrified the flying public.
As airlines worldwide begin to switch their orders to Airbus, he
becomes the scapegoat of the Administration. Steven, quite by
chance, learns that Michelet is behind the crashes. When he
finally manages to convince Sophie, she contacts a beleaguered
Frank Warner. Unable to elicit any support from the Washington
establishment, Warner comes to Paris himself. Several subplots,
pitting family members against each other, love against decency
and courage against terror, hurtle toward a conclusion that leaves
the reader exhilarated and emotionally spent.
