Alistair MacLean's Air Force One is Down

President Harriet Rowntree (Linda Hamilton, "Terminator") is en route to initiate NATO negotiations in Serbia. Markey's fear becomes a reality when Air Force One plunges into the Mediterranean - but to his surprise, President Rowntree is no longer on board, having been cast as a victim in a terrifying but brilliantly orchestrated kidnapping scheme.

In a Serbian castle hideaway, President Rowntree, White House correspondent Francesca Romero and exiled British diplomat Steven are being held hostage. In twelve hours, the president will be killed on camera if Dragutin is not set free. The situation goes from bad to worse as Markey struggles to locate Pertrovic and his lair.

A vengeful Dragutin disappears, but the hostages' lives still hang in the balance and time is running out to find them. As loyalties shift and true identities are revealed, deception becomes the true war game. Now, the nature of survival will be tested to the limit - and the whole world will be watching.
