In \;Here One Moment\, aside from a delay\, there will be no problems. The flight will be smooth\, it w ill land safely. Everyone who gets on the plane will get off. But almost a ll of them will be forever changed. Because on this ordinary\, short\, dom estic flight\, something extraordinary happens. People learn how and when they are going to die. For some\, their death is far in the future&mdash\; age 103!&mdash\;and they laugh. But for six passengers\, their predicted d eaths are not far away at all.
\nHow do they know this? There were o stensibly more interesting people on the flight but none would become as f amous as &ldquo\;The Death Lady.&rdquo\; Not a single passenger or crew me mber will later recall noticing her board the plane. She wasn&rsquo\;t exc eptionally old or young\, rude or polite. She wasn&rsquo\;t drunk or nervo us or pregnant. Her appearance and demeanor were unremarkable. But what sh e did on that flight was truly remarkable. \;
\nA few months lat er\, one passenger dies exactly as she predicted. Then two more passengers die\, again\, as she said they would. Soon no one is thinking this is sim ply an entertaining story at a cocktail party.
\nA modern-day Jane A usten who humorously skewers social mores while spinning a web of mystery\ , Moriarty asks profound questions in her newest I-can&rsquo\;t-wait-to-fi nd-out-what-happens novel. Be sure to register now!
