    About this audiobook

    When a 747 jumbo jet crashes in the back of her parents' sprawling Connecticut estate, the quietness of 16-year-old Heidi Landseth's insulated existence is transformed forever. With both her parents away for the weekend, she alone must make decisions that will affect the lives of hundreds of injured passengers. Her call to 911 gives Patrick Farquhar, a 17-year-old Emergency Medical Technician, the two things he has always wanted-excitement that a small rural community lacks and the opportunity to prove himself as an adult. This catastrophe, however, is beyond even his wildest imaginings. Will these two be able to help the victims until more rescuers arrive? Caroline B. Cooney is a past recipient of an American Library Association Best Book award. She is the author of more than 40 books for young adults.

      In this book, Heidi is a rich kid who cant do anything until a plane crashes in her yard. At first she is stunned, not knowing what to do. Then she goes inside to call for help. Then she runs back outside to help. Many people are dead and just as many are hurt. When the rescue sqad comes, they have people from other states to help them. In this battle to stay alive, Heidi experiances things she never could have imagined, including falling in love with a boy. This is a pretty good book filled with action.
    • 4/5
      This was a second time reading it because I remembered the title from years ago but not all that happened. The book covers about 9 hours and jumps from person to person to see many different view points but mainly focuses on Patrick and Heidi. While Heidi is out walking her dog in a freezing rain, she is stunned when a 747 comes crashing down in her rose garden. Called to action, she finds out what she is capable physically and emotionally. This was a great book and I ended up hating someone and crying at the fate of others.
