A crisis unlike any other… Like his many of his forbearers, President Jeremy Haines is weighed down by the solemn duties of his post. The threat of both the Soviet Union and China is a precarious situation and one mistake could lead the U.S into another long war. It seems the strain is too much, and unusual for Haines, he decides to take a week long vacation to Palm Springs, California for some R&R. But even more uncharacteristically, Haines declines to bring any reporter with him; the norm for him, while in office. Gunther Damon, news superintendent of the Washington Bureau of International Press is definitely suspicious. While not much a writer himself, Damon knows how to run a well-oiled team of reporters. And his gut instinct has never been wrong. In the early hours of the morning, President Haines’ plane goes missing. As the search for bodies goes on, the crew is slowly but surely accounted for; but no sign of President Haines. And then as one of Damon’s reporters find out, a body of unknown man is found amongst the wreckage. But it’s not President Haines’ body. In fact, the body is not of anyone who should’ve been on that plane. The corpse’s identity is a complete mystery. Which raises another mystery – where is the President of the United States? Set in the middle of the cold war, The President’s Plane is Missing is a thrilling and suspenseful mystery.

At the height of the Cold War and on the brink of war, the President's plane crashes. But, his body isn't in the wreckage. Was it flung far away? Totally destroyed? Never aboard? These are the threads that weave the plot. I read this book shortly after it was originally published and recalled that it was worth an encore. It didn't disappoint. In retrospect, it feels a little like some air was pumped into it to get it up to novel length, but that isn't too cumbersome. One weird thing - it's full of typos, like it was electronically scanned and not proofread.Product details

The President Plane is Missing Robert J Serling 9781520841052 Books Reviews
I really enjoyed reading this book! The story was fast paced and tense. Go read it.
My wife and I read the book together about 40 years ago and found it quite fun to read. We found it on , bought and reread it. It was still fun to read again, but very dated.
Great Book!! I am not a avid reader but I was unable to put this thing down. Lost sleep trying to finish it because of it. If you read one book this year this should be it. Hard to believe it was written so long ago.
Excellent read even though dated some by today's standards. Excellent accurate detail about flying.
EXCELLENT! As good a read as it was many years ago when I first read it!
I really enjoyed the book except, at times it seemed to drag as the author would repeat something. To me, the scarily thing with these political stories, they seem awfully close to real.
Send it on the "A" wire This is a great period piece that probably had people talking in the late 1960s the way the movie "Crimson Tide" had people talking in the mid 1990s.
What happens when the Chinese are threatening to launch nuclear missiles, the President goes missing, the President's brother (who, at least from a distance, looks an awful lot like the President) goes missing as well, the little-liked Vice President, who wasn't briefed on the Chinese situation before the President's disappearance, has to take on the role of "Acting" President until it can be determined if the President is dead or alive, Cabinet members who know more than others have to walk a thin line between keeping the missing President's confidences and letting the Vice President and remaining cabinet members know what was supposed to happen if the President's plane hadn't gone missing, and the press begins to unravel a story they may not wish to reveal?
The book is WAY too slow at the beginning, but when Air Force One takes off, the story does too.
