    Praise for Chris Bohjalian's The Flight Attendant:

    "Filled with turbulence and sudden plunges in altitude...enhanced by his deftness in sketching out vivid characters and locales and by his obvious research into the realities of airline work." —Maureen Corrigan, The Washington Post

    "Bohjalian twists the tension tight and keeps the surprises startling." —Tom Nolan, The Wall Street Journal

    "The stakes couldn't be higher (literally)." —Cosmopolitan
