With everyone onboard harboring dark secrets and at least one individual determined to make sure the airship doesn't make the go back trip, Airfare of Dreams gives an absolutely suspenseful, heart-wrenching description for one of the most long lasting mysteries of the 20th century. On the evening of May 3, 1937, Emilie Imhof boards the Hindenburg. As really the only female crew member, Emilie has access to the entire airship, from the lavish dinner rooms and passenger suites to the gritty engine motor cars and control room. She hears everything, but with rumors circulating about bomb hazards, Emilie's emphasis is on retaining a professional air...and keeping her own programs under wraps. What Emilie can't see is the fact that everyone - from the active vaudeville acrobat to the high-standing German official - appears to be hiding something. Giving free rein to countless theories of sabotage, charade, and mishap, Airfare of Dreams will take us on the thrilling three-day transatlantic airfare through the alternating perspectives of Emilie; Maximum, the ship's navigator, who is sweet on her; Gertrud, a striking feminine journalist who's been blacklisted in her local Germany; Werner, a 13-year-old cabin boy with an undesirable habit of sneaking through to people; and a brash American who's never without a drink in his side. Everyone understands more than they primarily let on, so that as the novel moves inexorably toward its tragic climax, the question of which of the individuals will make it through the trip infuses every landscape with a deliciously unbearable tension. With enthralling atmospheric details that immediately transport and spellbinding plotting that could make Agatha Christie happy, Airfare of Dreams could keep you speculating till the last second. And, as The NY Times Publication Review said of her previous novel, "This booklet is more meticulously choreographed when compared to a chorus line. Everything pays off".
