SKYJACKED by Paul Griffin

Five private school students are headed home from a camping trip. They board the private jet owned by one of the student's parents and settle in for their four hour flight home to New York. 

It doesn't take long for strange things to happen. The usual copilot has called in sick and has been replaced by a tiny, young pilot named Sofia. The chaperone for the trip is unusually quiet and impatient and not interested in chatting with the five teens. 

Less than an hour into the flight, the daughter of the plane's owner becomes mysteriously ill. It seems to be an allergic reaction, but no one knows the cause. Despite efforts to treat her, she dies. 

When the passengers discover the cockpit door is locked, speculations begin that the unknown substitute copilot may have taken over the plane. What is going on? Have terrorists targeted the students? Will there be a ransom demand? Is there a way for them to take over the plane and land it safely?

As the teens are struggling to make sense of their situation, a young intern is watching everything from the National Air Traffic Control Center in Virginia. Can she provide research information that will unlock the mystery of the hijacked plane and save the passengers or will she only be able to watch as events unfold and the plane either crashes or is shot down?

Author Paul Griffin takes readers on a thrill ride beginning on page one. The fast-paced action doesn't let up for a minute. SKYJACKED is a perfect example of a page-turner readers won't be able to put down.
