title: Flight 427: Anatomy of an Air Disaster
author:  Gerry Byrne 
description: <P>From the reviews:</P> <P>"Its a book about hi-tech sleuths racing against time and looming danger to solve an unfathomable mystery: why commercial airliners in seemingly perfect working order flipped over and fell from the sky. Author Byrne manages this in a style that is both suspenseful and educational  . Highly recommended for anyone interested in technology and/or aviation  ." (Wordtrade.com, Issue 1, 2003)</P> <P>"Byrne, an internationally recognized science journalist, has crafted a detailed, compelling chronicle about solving the riddles of an airline disaster.  Byrne probes the engineering variables, corporate politics, and federal bureaucracies that characterized the investigation of these incidents.  Highly recommended. All levels." (R. E. Bilstein, Choice, January, 2003)</P> <P>"In 1994, a commercial jetliner crashed on its approach to Pittsburgh International Airport  . British science writer Byrne investigates why it took so long to uncover and disclose the rare but lethal design flaw in the Boeing 737. Intelligently written, drawing in readers without dwelling on the stories of the victims, the narrative instead focuses on the technology and the politics involved."

  becomes too much he is taken home to hide, back to the small Irish town he grew up in and to the
  home he once shared with Rory.
   
  Rory Kendrick watches the news, sees every hour of the disaster unfold and somehow just
  knows that Lachlan was in the middle of it all. What he doesn’t know is that Lachlan will be forced to
  come back home to
