Pack your bag thriller readers. Seat 3A is about to take you on a trip you can't miss.

Crime Fiction fanatic, Christian Stone, has a simple ritual to help him overcome his fear of flying.

He must, absolutely must, sit in seat 3A. During takeoff, he spots what appears to be a dead body lying on the river bank.

So by the time his plane lands, he's booked a ticket on the next available return flight.

Christian follows the trail through gambling rings, mysterious fortunes, and rumored mob ties.

But when his hunt places him in the crosshairs of a sinister underground crime syndicate,

he uncovers a truth that hits closer to home than he could have imagined.
