review 1: Marine One was an adrenaline filled read! It was very fast paced. This was the first book I have read from this author and it will not be my last for sure!! It was interesting to read that the author was in the Navy and actually served on the same ship (The Nimitz) which happens to be the one my husband is serving on too! (Sorry had to throw in that little side note.)Many questions are left to be answered when the United States President Adams leaves on his Marine One helicopter on a stormy night to attend a secretive meeting at Camp David, when his plane goes down killing everyone aboard.It is up to Mike Nolan a trial attorney to dig up what really happened and why the meeting the President was about to attend was so secretive......As the reader reads on the story takes m... moreany turns that will have the reader at the edge of his or her seat. I highly recommend this one!
review 2: James W. Huston's "Marine One" opens with a bang as the Marine One helicopter carrying the president goes down killing him during a heavy storm. What ensues thereafter is an exciting thriller/mystery that not only explains what caused the crash, but that also delves into the politics that even sometimes we the people aren't supposed to know about. Huston's story somewhat splits itself from the actual investigation of the crash to the Congressional hearings to eventually the courtroom during a trial against the manufacturer of the helicopter who has been implicated all along in this disaster. The characters & drama are as realistic as they come & the setting fits the modern era as well as any book dealing with politics in general. An enjoyable read from start to finish. less
