Description: "Michael Ashmore's brother, Charlie, comes to him for help after failing a routine drug screen from the airline that employs him. Charlie begs for a second chance and Michael, the airline's legal counsel, gets it for him by suppressing the positive test. But on a flight two months later, Charlie's plane crashes, killing all on board. An autopsy reveals Charlie had taken a lethal dose of barbiturates."--BOOK JACKET.

"Suddenly, Michael's role in clearing Charlie to fly is discovered, and he finds himself indicted for reckless homicide. Certain that Charlie would never knowingly endanger his passengers, Michael must uncover the real reason for the crash, and in the meantime fight a court battle for his life, reputation, and family against a zealous district attorney and a powerful aviation industry with everything to lose."--BOOK JACKET.
