About this listen
It's the ultimate test of courage.
The Man: an astronaut who has lost his mojo
The Mission: to seek and destroy a hijacked space shuttle
The Cargo: enough weapons grade Uranium-235 to irradiate Manhattan
The stakes: the woman he loves and the fate of a city …
From NASA's Cape Canaveral to the Central Australian desert, Steve Worland's debut thriller sets a heart-stopping pace. A cast of brilliant characters combined with explosive action make this a genuine blockbuster.

Hailed as the finest combat aviation novel to emerge from the Vietnam War, Flight of the Intruder spent 28 weeks on the New York Times hardcover best-seller list and became one of the top-20 best-selling first novels of all time. An instant classic, the book was translated into more than 20 languages and made into a major motion picture. Its hero, Jake Grafton, became a household name and the star of many more Coonts’ best-sellers. Without question, the strength of the book lies in its flying scenes when Jake Grafton straps himself into the cockpit of his A-6 Intruder.
