B.J. Bouchet is an air traffic controller whose professional skills are indisputable, but whose self-induced demons have left him in emotional shambles. Numbered among his woes are a bitter divorce as well as a DUI conviction and enforced therapy. Quite unexpectedly, a budding romance with a beautiful immigrant named Asha seems to rescue him from his torment.

       Asha’s dysfunctional family, however, poses ethnic and legal obstacles that must be resolved before they can plan for a life together. B.J. determines that the only viable course of action is to use his vast knowledge of the air traffic system to orchestrate an illicit solution to their dilemma. However, during the implementation of his plan, he discovers that Asha’s family has a sinister purpose in mind that will endanger the entire east coast of the United States. Taking matters into his own hands, he attempts to undo his technological shenanigans, but he is thwarted and detained by the authorities. His frantic efforts to dismantle what he has set in motion leads him to an extraordinary and harrowing course of action that ultimately proves to be deadly.

       Can one man stymie the malevolent plot that is being hatched and avert a cataclysmic incident? And, regardless of the outcome, how will his efforts be characterized by those in authority? Both B.J. Bouchet and the reader will have to wait until the very end to find out.
