by Ken Follett
#1 New York Times bestselling author Ken Follett takes to the skies in this classic novel of international suspense. Set in the early days of World War II, Night over Water captures the daring and desperation of ordinary people caught in extraordinary circumstances—in prose as compelling as history itself... .
September 1939. England is at war with Nazi Germany. In Southampton, the world's most luxurious airliner—the legendary Pan Am Clipper—takes off for its final flight to neutral America. Aboard are the cream of society and the dregs of humanity, all fleeing the war for reasons of their own ... shadowed by a danger they do not know exists ... and heading straight into a storm of violence, intrigue, and betrayal... .
"No technothrills. No psychodrama. No fine writing. Hours of good storytelling." ―Kirkus Reviews (starrred review)
