Über Eight Miles High
Maybe you think I was replaying this conversation in my head after I yanked the ripcord. Maybe you think that after the parachute jerked me up and after the pain in my near-dislocated shoulders subsided into a steady ache, I applied my investigative faculties to the case at hand while drifting earthward like a fallen leaf, thinking, "This is quite a two-pipe problem."
World War II veteran pilot Toots Magruder survived sabotage, criminal negligence, slander, and friendly fire during the war before crash landing her plane in the middle of a suburban Fourth of July picnic. But two of her former WASP comrades have recently died and now she appears to be next on the killer's hit list.
Detective-in-training Cat Caliban and her partner, retired cop Moses Fogg, delve into the past to investigate the two deaths and try to prevent a third. Their investigations take them to a WASP reunion at the Dayton Air Show and result in a high-altitude, high-stakes climax especially harrowing to Cat, who is afraid to fly.
Can Cat and Moses catch the murderer before another plane goes down? Can Cat survive two plane rides, a parachute jump, and a round of golf?
