Three heart-poundingly realistic narratives race forward to an unthinkable end in this technically viable aviation crime thriller--a somewhat dysfunctional and comedic romance aboard ill-fated Empire Airlines flight 855, a detective mystery with strange clues and even stranger characters, and the misadventures of two criminals transporting a mysterious device across the state of Wisconsin.In the manner of best-selling author John J. Nance, the aviation sequences are smartly detailed, and because some chapters are based on the author's actual experiences they ring authentic. Senior FBI agent Bob Capone's hand-picked team of experts work feverishly through the night to connect the curious electronic box, the Bennetti crime family, and Empire captain Mike Nicholson. As the sun sneaks the first light into the nation's capitol, Capone is finally able to make sense of the myriad of bizarre events brought to his desk during the long night. Flight 855 will depart Chicago in only minutes, and the horrific nightmare will begin to unfold. One hope remains and Capone knows that he'll need more than a miracle to prevent the crazed airline captain from fulfilling his diabolic quest.Newgate's Knocker is a fictional story, however, the highly sophisticated electronic wave pulse generator described in the book is, in fact, based on tested technology, making the story line credible, and uniquely troubling. Should such a device become viable and available to terrorist organizations, then Newgate's Knocker could prove prophetic.
