The Last Flight is thoroughly absorbing--not only because of its
tantalizing plot and deft pacing, but also because of its unexpected
poignancy and its satisfying, if bittersweet, resolution. The characters
get under your skin.--The New York Times Book Review
Two women. Two flights. One last chance to disappear.
Claire Cook has a perfect life. Married to the scion of a political
dynasty, with a Manhattan townhouse and a staff of ten, her surroundings
are elegant, her days flawlessly choreographed, and her future
auspicious. But behind closed doors, nothing is quite as it seems. That
perfect husband has a temper that burns bright and he's not above using
his staff to track Claire's every move.
What he doesn't know is that Claire has worked for months on a plan to
vanish. A plan that takes her to the airport, poised to run from it all.
But a chance meeting in the airport bar brings her together with a woman
whose circumstances seem equally dire. Together they make a last-minute
decision.
The two women switch tickets, with Claire taking Eva's flight to
Oakland, and Eva traveling to Puerto Rico as Claire. They believe the
swap will give each of them the head start they need to begin again
somewhere far away. But when the flight to Puerto Rico crashes, Claire
realizes it's no longer a head start but a new life. Cut off, out of
options, with the news of her death about to explode in the media,
Claire will assume Eva's identity, and along with it, the secrets Eva
fought so hard to keep hidden.
For fans of Lisa Jewell and Liv Constantine, The Last Flight is the
story of two women--both alone, both scared--and one agonizing decision
that will change the trajectory of both of their lives.
Praise for The Last Flight:
The Last Flight is a wild ride: One part Strangers on a Train, one
part Breaking Bad, with more twists than an amusement park roller
coaster! Julie Clark is a devilishly inventive storyteller.
