Product Description

Based on true events, but unlike anything you've ever read before, #1 New York Times best-selling author Nelson DeMille has created what may be his finest work to date.

At dusk on July 17, 1996, on a deserted Long Island beach, a man and a woman engage in adulterous sex in front of a video camera. Suddenly a terrible blast lights up the dark summer sky. TWA Flight 800 has just exploded in midair with 230 souls on board, and the video camera has recorded the last moments of the doomed airliner.

Five years later, the government has declared the crash a result of mechanical failure. But John Corey, an ex-NYPD detective who is now a contract agent with the Federal Anti-Terrorist Task Force, is persuaded by Kate Mayfield, his wife and task force partner, that the case deserves a second look.

Kate, a career FBI agent, plays by the rules. Corey plays by no rules but his own. Against long odds and warnings from their superiors, they set out to reopen the case and discover its most crucial piece of evidence. The hunt will lead to a conspiracy at the highest levels and a race toward an elusive and lethal truth that could be even more horrifying than the crash of Flight 800, one with unimaginable consequences for America...and the world.

Excellent 13 Jun 2005
Format:Hardcover
With Night Fall we see again Nelson Demille moving into the realms of conspiracy theory that we have seen touched on in both The Charm School and The Talbot Odyssey. However don't let this put you off as again, Demille handles his subject matter with tact, using a writers artistic license just enough to create an enjoyable novel, without moving the reader to disbelief.

The story again centres on John Corey, a street smart New York cop, with not a small amount of contempt for his federal counterparts. Luckily it isn't as cliché as this could suggest and Corey does have a 3D element to him, helped in no small part by the casting of FBI agent Kate Mayfield as his love interest.

The story progresses through Corey opening up (unofficially) the tragic case of flight TWA 800 which plunged into the Atlantic killing all on board. Conspiracy theories were all discredited but thanks to a possible new piece of evidence, were they disregarded correctly...

Its an excellent book with many twists and turns and definitely up there with Demille's best. A strong recommendation.

I read this book while unwell and it cheered me up. It is a page turning classic for the lovers of Dan Brown books. I would strongly urge anyone to get their hands on a copy for themselves.

Best I've read this year, not the first Nelson DeMille book that I've read and definetly not the last. I just need to get back on Amazon and order all the ones I've missed.
