Book Information
Bahrain, 1970. After a summer spent with her parents and brothers, fifteen-year-old Anna is taking a plane back to boarding school in England. The plane never makes it home. Anna's flight is hijacked by Palestinian terrorists. They land the plane in the Jordanian desert, the engines are switched off, and demands are issued. If they are not met, the terrorists will blow up the plane, killing all the hostages. The heat becomes unbearable, food and water supplies dwindle. The clock ticks down to the deadline. All alone, Anna begins to face the possibility she may never see her family again. Based on true events, this is a story about ordinary people facing agonizing horror, of courage and resilience.
