Lynne Heitman's Alex Shanahan Series, The Alex Shanahan Thrillers

Four aviation thrillers from an author who “melds the maze of today’s airline industry with intrigue and mystery” (John J. Nance, New York Times–bestselling author of Final Approach).

The friendly skies are anything but in these expertly crafted novels of suspense set in the cutthroat world of the airline industry, now available in one volume.

In Hard Landing—called “an edge-of-your-seat thriller that sweeps you up and carries you along for the ride” by Lisa Gardner—Alex Shanahan takes over Majestic Airlines at Logan International Airport, and discovers that her predecessor’s mysterious death may not have been suicide.

In Parts Unknown, black market airplane parts put countless lives at risk, including Alex’s. In the “action-filled” First Class Killing, Alex goes undercover as a flight attendant to bust up a mile-high prostitution ring (The Boston Globe). And in The Pandora Key, a very cold case heats up, and puts Alex in the crosshairs of the Russian mob, as acclaimed author Lynne Hinton brings “the whole shebang to a taut, satisfying conclusion” (Publishers Weekly).

Lynne Heitman

Before she became a writer, Lynne Heitman worked for a major airline for fourteen years in cities around the country. Along the way, she gathered a treasure trove of experiences, which she drew upon to create the character of Alex Shanahan, the airline-manager-turned-PI featured in her four thrillers. The second book in the series, Parts Unknown (previously Tarmac), was named by Publishers Weekly as one of the year’s best and her short story Exit Interview was published in the Boston Noir anthology.
