J.E. Lockhart. Paperback. New. Paperback. 354 pages. Dimensions: 8.0in. x 5.2in. x 0.9in.When William Maddock boards Western Global Airlines Flight 2915 for a family vacation, the private pilot has no idea of the pivotal role he will soon play in history. En route to England from Canada, the 747 is hijacked by a group of terrorists during a massive attack on the United States and its western allies. But the would-be martyrs dont count on the indomitable spirit of the passengers, who refuse to go quietly. Willing to fight to the last breath, Maddock rallies his fellow passengers, including a gung-ho rugby player, a dedicated air marshall, and an Arab man determined to prove himself separate from the terrorists. Together they will face insurmountable odds, to foil their attackers plot and rejoin the brave men and women on the ground struggling to preserve their once-great nations. A timely and provocative novel that could be ripped from the headlines in a not-too-distant future, Today Is When is an inspiring story of sacrifice and courage.

Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1898 Excerpt: . . . Schlapp, Kelly, C. G. Millar, E. F. Millar, W. R. Wilson, and Sam Wilson, are all names well known in Capel Court. They would carry weight anywhere. And there are dozens more of the like kind--men of considerable power, wide experience, and with cool heads. And yet such men let Victoria be run by a loudshouting crowd of demagogues, who have nothing to lose, and everything to gain. It is not a pleasant topic, this ever-recurring political position. Millar Brothers are big railway men. Saddler 1 is brilliantly successful, quite an exceptional man. Reid runs the big sulphide corporation. Knox and Schlapp are interested in the copper trust with Gibbs, Bright and Company, and they, with Kelly and Jameson, have engineered the famous Mount Lyell deal. And if all they say is true--and there is no doubt they believe what they say--Mount Lyell will one day be a second Broken Hill. All those men, with the Wilsons, were at the back of the Broken Hill deal. They are all sparkling with ideas and brimful of energy. Very few of the things they have taken up have turned out failures. They are the successful financiers of Melbourne. Of course they are gamblers--everybody gambles in Melbourne; but they have cool heads, and when they make a big deal the odds are in their favour. They have done for mining what the Armours did for wheat and pork in Chicago, and Melbourne respects them accordingly. And it must be admitted that these men have been made by the position. With Bendigo and Ballarat only a few hours from Melbourne; with the famous Gippsland mines at their doors; with sleepy Tasmania only waiting for go-ahead Victorians to exploit her, but a few hours sail away; with the Great Broken Hill not thirty hours distant, what wonder, then, that a crowd of mining giants should. . .
