Marine One
Published by St. Martin's Publishing Group
An attorney and Marine veteran must unravel a deadly conspiracy in this explosive legal thriller by a New York Times–bestselling author.
The President rushes across the South Lawn through a pounding thunderstorm to board Marine One and fly to Camp David late at night. Advisors plead with him not to go—but he insists. He has arranged a meeting that only three people in his administration know about. But he never gets there. Marine One crashes into a ravine, killing all aboard . . .
The government accuses the French helicopter manufacturer of killing the president. Senate Investigations and Justice Department accusations multiply as Mike Nolan, a trial attorney and a Marine Corps reserve helicopter pilot, is hired to defend the company against a wrongful death lawsuit brought by the First Lady.
Now Nolan must find out what really caused Marine One to crash, and why the president threw caution aside to attend a secret meeting. To clear his client, Nolan must win the highest-profile trial of the last hundred years with very little working for him and many working against him—intent on stopping him at any cost . . .
Praise for Marine One
“Bestseller Huston . . . grabs the reader by the lapels with the opening sentence of the first chapter of this outstanding thriller. . . . This is nonstop legal suspense at its best.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
“This gripping thriller opens with a bang. . . . The author smoothly combines the political-conspiracy and courtroom-drama formats, and he nicely explores the story’s fundamental moral quandary. . . . The book has echoes of Michael Crichton’s Airframe.” —Booklist
