Join us today at 3:30 EDT on our Facebook page when author Anderson Harp sits down with a BookTrib contributor and thriller author in his own right, Dennis Hetzel, to talk about Harp’s new book, November 400CP Is Missing (Lyrical Underground).
ABOUT THE BOOK
When a Gulfstream jet owned by oil company PT Chevron Pacific mysteriously disappears after taking off from the international airport in Kuala Lumpur, Will Parker, a decorated Marine lieutenant colonel, is roped into the investigation by the wife of one of the passengers. The FBI and the CIA aren’t giving her much help, and her husband was a former Marine buddy of Parker’s.
The plane was en route to explore a new and gigantic oil reserve, the biggest in Indonesian history. But the jet dropped from the sky in the same general region in which the real-world Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 mysteriously disappeared in 2014. Parker assembles a rogue team that heads to Indonesia where, he meets a beautiful, resourceful and intriguing woman. She’s Retno Karim, an Indonesian government operative who speaks multiple languages and is a native of the Banda Aceh region that might be home to a reawakened terrorist group.
From that point, it’s a page-turning pursuit story that moves between three vantage points: Parker and his team, the terrorists, and the imprisoned crash survivors who await a near-certain death likely to be televised around the world unless they escape. (Read Dennis Hetzel’s full review here.)
