Synopsis
1980, PASS CHRISTIAN, MISSISSIPPI: It is three in the morning when Bobby Western zips the jacket of his wetsuit and plunges from the boat deck into darkness. His divelight illuminates the sunken jet, nine bodies still buckled in their seats, hair floating, eyes devoid of speculation. Missing from the crash site are the pilot’s flightbag, the plane’s black box, and the tenth passenger. But how? A collateral witness to machinations that can only bring him harm, Western is shadowed in body and spirit – by men with badges; by the ghost of his father, inventor of the bomb that melted glass and flesh in Hiroshima; and by his sister, the love and ruin of his soul.
Traversing the American South, from the garrulous bar rooms of New Orleans to an abandoned oil rig off the Florida coast, The Passenger is a breathtaking novel of morality and science, the legacy of sin, and the madness that is human consciousness.

Seller: Hamelyn, Madrid, M, Spain
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Condition: Bueno. : En 1980, en Pass Christian, Mississippi, Bobby Western se sumerge en la oscuridad desde la cubierta de un barco. Su luz ilumina un jet hundido con nueve cuerpos aún abrochados en sus asientos. Del lugar del accidente faltan el maletín del piloto, la caja negra del avión y el décimo pasajero. Western se ve envuelto en una conspiración que lo lleva a través del sur de Estados Unidos, desde los bares de Nueva Orleans hasta una plataforma petrolífera abandonada en la costa de Florida. 'The Passenger' es una novela sobre la moralidad, la ciencia, el legado del pecado y la locura de la conciencia humana.
