On a foggy summer night, eleven people--ten privileged, one down-on-his-luck painter--depart Martha's Vineyard on a private jet headed for New York. Sixteen minutes later, the unthinkable happens: the plane plunges into the ocean. The only survivors are Scott Burroughs--the painter--and a four-year-old boy, who is now the last remaining member of an immensely wealthy and powerful media mogul's family.
With chapters weaving between the aftermath of the crash and the backstories of the passengers and crew members--including a Wall Street titan and his wife, a Texan-born party boy just in from London, a young woman questioning her path in life, and a career pilot--the mystery surrounding the tragedy heightens. As the passengers' intrigues unravel, odd coincidences point to a conspiracy. Was it merely by dumb chance that so many influential people perished? Or was something far more sinister at work? Events soon threaten to spiral out of control in an escalating storm of media outrage and accusations. And while Scott struggles to cope with fame that borders on notoriety, the authorities scramble to salvage the truth from the wreckage.
Amid pulse-quickening suspense, the fragile relationship between Scott and the young boy glows at the heart of this stunning novel, raising questions of fate, human nature, and the inextricable ties that bind us together.

一股濃濃的消遣式美劇風。也真就是用來打發時間還行 看完都沒啥值得迴想的
評分故事本身挺俗套的,但抽絲剝繭的推進敘事還是扣人心弦。人物刻畫生動但也不免臉譜化。總之是滿滿美劇套路,度假時閑讀不錯。
評分我很喜歡這個故事,喜歡作者夾在Scott/Gus視角中扯的閑篇。命運的隨機性,錶象與事實,人在事後迴顧中對任意兩個隨機事件建立聯係的衝動,媒體樹立英雄再推倒英雄的循環,24小時新聞的武斷和對隱私的侵襲…這本書是包裝在懸疑小說的外殼下的一些對時下生活的思考。墜機故事的結局/真相蠻好的,和這本書的主題很契閤;但小說的結尾有點倉促。
評分Oct.7-10
評分作為紐約時報十大推薦之一,實在名不副實。很簡單的一個故事,故意遮遮掩掩的講。看不齣什麼麯摺離奇,隻看到很多地方故意發散,離題萬裏。
在黑暗来临之前,我心中还存在一丝光明,我以为我可以抓住那份光明,是绝望,被黑暗吞噬的绝望,我在死亡的温床上起舞,死神如约而至,灾难在没有发生的时候,谁也无法预料到,究竟是人为还是上天注定。这个事件包括三种人:当事人、旁观者、幸存者,在当局之中,究竟谁是瓮中...
評分 評分我一贯喜欢读悬疑小说。悬疑小说总是有一种独特的魅力,总有一个悬念从头到尾吸引着我,让我想要去揭开秘密,让我发现小说中留下的各种蛛丝马迹;但是又怕知道真相之后,自己有一些如释重负的失望。所以在这种矛盾的心情当中,我一点点爱上了悬疑小说。年中的时候,我就听说这...
評分 評分我记得曾看“太监之神”zhttty的作品,其中有这样的一段话:每个人的内心都有着阴暗一面,同样的,每个人内心也有着光明一面,人没可能是纯粹的恶或者善,因为人就是这样矛盾。 诺亚·霍利,美剧《冰血暴》的制作人、编剧。如果让我选择他的作品,我还是选择这本悬疑小说《坠落...
