Subject: [bksvol-discuss] The Note
Susan was curious about the book I'm currently scanning. Here's what
Amazon has to say about The Note by Angela Hunt.
When the unthinkable happens . . .
En route from New York's LaGuardia Airport to Tampa International,
Flight 848 bursts into flames and crashes into Tampa Bay. All 261
passengers and crew
are killed. For one week, newspaper columnist Peyton MacGruder and
her fellow reporters cover one of the nation's worst air disasters in
years with overwhelming
and numbed emotions.
Then a woman Peyton's never met gives her a plastic bag that has
washed up behind her house. The bag contains a note, almost certainly
from the doomed flight,
with a simple yet wrenching message: T- I love you. All is forgiven. -Dad
Combing through the passenger list to find the victims whose
children's names begin with T, Peyton is determined to deliver the
note to its proper owner.
A quest which will prove as important to Peyton's own life as to the
mysterious T.
Angela Elwell Hunt has authored over seventy books, including The
Note, The Tale of Three Trees, and By Dawn's Early Light, a novel
co-authored with Grant Jeffrey, which won the 2000 Christy Award for
Christian fiction. Hunt resides in Tampa, Florida, with her husband
and two children. --
excerpt from CHAPTER ONE:
Wednesday, June 13
The sultry breeze carried not a single hint that the summer afternoon
would give birth to the worst aviation disaster in American history.
At New York's bustling LaGuardia Airport, thousands of passengers
clutched belongings, flashed driver's licenses, and gripped boarding
passes before departing for far-flung destinations across the globe.
Every one of them had made plans for the evening.
At gate B-13, 237 passengers waited for a jet that would carry them
to Tampa International Airport. Their reasons for traveling were as
varied as their faces: some hoped for a few days of fun, others
looked forward to work, others yearned to see family. A pleasant mood
reigned in the lounge area despite the jet's late arrival. Chuck
O'Neil, one of the PanWorld gate attendants, told jokes to pass the
time. Four standby passengers smiled in relief when they were told
seats were available.
