December 1944. The end of the war seems to be in sight and the Allies are confident of victory.

Then comes a catastrophe that no one can believe.

John ‘Cowboy’ O’Hara, the pilot of a BOAC airliner, is ordered to carry out a dangerous mission to deceive the enemy – a mission so perilous that he and his crew may never return home.

Soon after the takeoff, they begin to suspect that there is an enemy spy on board. The spy’s sabotage attempts get more and more ingenious, leaving the crew fearing for their lives.

But who is the saboteur and can the crew catch him – and complete their mission successfully – before it’s too late?

Happy Christmas!

David Hough's aviation thriller Heathrow receives a 5-star review

23/9/2016

David Hough's exciting aviation thriller Heathrow has received a 5-star review on Amazon. The reviewer thought the book was "brilliant" and "could not put the book down".

The story of Heathrow begins when a fire disrupts the London Air Traffic Control Centre and the controllers move to an emergency control room at Heathrow – which is exactly where a group of terrorists want them.

The crisis deepens and the whole of London’s Air Traffic Control system comes under attack. Despite facing personal danger, the controllers struggle to keep the airspace safe.

Desperate measures are needed to discover who is behind the attack, and what they want. Measures that put innocent lives at risk. As the answers begin to emerge, it becomes clear that far more is at stake than the safety of aicraft and passengers.

By then, there seems no way to stop a terrorist attack far more shocking than anyone had imagined.

The Poisoned Cup by Edward Lanyon receives a 5-star review

8/7/2016

Edward Lanyon's book The Poisoned Cup has received a wonderful 5-star review on Amazon:

"This book is billed as the other side of the Braveheart movie but it is a lot more accurate even though it is historical fiction and some of the main characters didn't really exist. This is the dark side of the Wallace story. The hero is an older knight who sees battle for the grim result and not for glory. He tells the tale of bloodlust driven by hate, inept commanders, and the impact on innocents. To make the story interesting, the author includes a fictional (maybe...) heroine who is very strong but also believable. If you are disillusioned by romantic accounts of Falkirk and Sterling battles, read this to get closer to the real deal. I'd like to read more by this author."

It's like Die Hard with wings!

2/6/2016

David Hough's new aviation thriller, Heathrow, has been published - and according to one of the readers, it's like Die Hard with wings!

The story starts when a fire disrupts the London Air Traffic Control Centre and the controllers move to an emergency control room at Heathrow – which is exactly where a group of terrorists want them.

The crisis deepens and the whole of London’s Air Traffic Control system comes under attack. Desperate measures are needed to discover who is behind the attack, and what they want. As the answers begin to emerge, it becomes clear that far more is at stake than the safety of aircraft and passengers. By then, there seems no way to stop a terrorist attack far more shocking than anyone had imagined.

David Hough takes his reader on a nail-biting journey: the clock is ticking, the stakes are getting higher and higher - and the disaster is getting closer and closer. A rip-roaring, page-turner of a novel.

Heathrow is now available
as a paperback and Kindle ebook.

Aviation thriller Prestwick is now available as a paperback

24/5/2016

We are delighted to announce that David Hough's popular aviation thriller Prestwick is now available as a paperback. The book has been highly rated by the readers and it has received many wonderful reviews, such as:

“Utterly riveting, sheer magnetic brilliance. Best book in ages!”

“The author really knows his subject and has used this
to maximum effect. This would make an excellent movie.”

The book can be ordered from Amazon and other retailers.

A freak mid-air collision cripples a trans-Atlantic 747 and a US Air Force jet. Against the clock and overwhelming odds, the planes’ crews — or what’s left of them — struggle to save the on-board survivors. Meanwhile an obsessed narcotics detective tries to pin drug smuggling and murder on two suspects on board the crippled 747.

As the weather deteriorates, most Scottish airports are closed, leaving Prestwick the only airport available for a safe landing. However, Prestwick has its own emergency to deal with, something that overshadows all other problems. Landing permission is refused and more than four hundred people are condemned to an almost certain death over icy, blizzard-swept seas.

Can things get any worse? They can — and they do...
