On a foggy summer night, eleven people--ten privileged, one down-on-his-luck painter--depart Martha's Vineyard on a private jet headed for New York. Sixteen minutes later, the unthinkable happens: the plane plunges into the ocean. The only survivors are Scott Burroughs--the painter--and a four-year-old boy, who is now the last remaining member of an immensely wealthy and powerful media mogul's family.
With chapters weaving between the aftermath of the crash and the backstories of the passengers and crew members--including a Wall Street titan and his wife, a Texan-born party boy just in from London, a young woman questioning her path in life, and a career pilot--the mystery surrounding the tragedy heightens. As the passengers' intrigues unravel, odd coincidences point to a conspiracy. Was it merely by dumb chance that so many influential people perished? Or was something far more sinister at work? Events soon threaten to spiral out of control in an escalating storm of media outrage and accusations. And while Scott struggles to cope with fame that borders on notoriety, the authorities scramble to salvage the truth from the wreckage.
Amid pulse-quickening suspense, the fragile relationship between Scott and the young boy glows at the heart of this stunning novel, raising questions of fate, human nature, and the inextricable ties that bind us together.

評分 評分我記得曾看“太監之神”zhttty的作品,其中有這樣的一段話:每個人的內心都有著陰暗一麵,同樣的,每個人內心也有著光明一麵,人沒可能是純粹的惡或者善,因為人就是這樣矛盾。 諾亞·霍利,美劇《冰血暴》的製作人、編劇。如果讓我選擇他的作品,我還是選擇這本懸疑小說《墜落...

補馬。這本書的重點在人物塑造上,懸疑並不強,就一個迷吊你胃口,騙你看瞭很多人物故事,提供的綫索也不多,到結局揭曉謎底的時候非常失望。。。
評分故事本身挺俗套的,但抽絲剝繭的推進敘事還是扣人心弦。人物刻畫生動但也不免臉譜化。總之是滿滿美劇套路,度假時閑讀不錯。
