GUEST: Thomas Ray, author of Flight 47 & veteran of the U.S. intelligence services

A missing airliner. A frantic search for a vanished friend. A global conspiracy. Inspired by real questions surrounding the disappearance of Malaysian Air 370, Flight 47 takes off with a heart-pounding, thrilling new international release from Bestselling Author Thomas Ray - an author with deep ties to U.S. intelligence. Thomas Ray is a veteran of the U.S. intelligence services, having worked in the field for two decades. He currently consults for film, television, security, and intelligence matters. Ray’s previous work, including the novel Silencer, was recently sold as a film to Paramount Pictures. Known for his "quiet" espionage thrillers like Silencer, Hazel, and The Spy Without a Country, Ray is inspired by titans of the genre, John Le Carré and Frederick Forsythe. Ray’s stories are rooted in realism, examining the ongoing "New Cold War" and the digital yet deeply human intelligence operations occurring globally. He is interested in stories that peek behind the headlines and ask slightly impossible "what if" questions. ABOUT THE BOOK When Flight 47 mysteriously vanishes over Niger, no one seems to notice—or care. NGO aide worker Casey Grant accidentally misses the flight that his friend and closest confidante, Kelly, boards. When he tries to catch up with her at her destination, he finds no trace of her. Moreover, the airlines claim no record of Flight 47 ever having existed. Casey begins a desperate, international race against time, trekking across forgotten parts of the globe to find answers to a disappearance he never expected could happen. Will he find Kelly, the plane, or the truth before the danger he's unwittingly stepped into catches up with him? Set in the wilds of Niger, Flight 47 is a gripping mystery-thriller that asks probing questions about the security of the global airline industry and what is possible when major terrorist threats exploit the network. Perfect for fans of psychological thrillers like Gone Girl, The Flight Attendant, and Hi/Jack.
