While he has the inside scoop on what keeps airliners flying, Aviation Maintenance and Flight Test Avionics Technician, E.L. Crenshaw, is also acutely aware of what can bring them crashing back down to earth. However, ‘They Always Come in Three’ focuses on the mysterious and unexplainable side of one fictional airline’s repeated disasters. While unplanned, the novel ironically comes a time when the world is gripped by the disappearance of one real-world Asian airline’s own Boeing 777.

Federal Way, WA -- (SBWire) -- 08/18/2014 --Aircraft are supposed to stay in the air, but a seemingly-increasing slew of recent news stories show that man’s most advanced machines can fall out of the sky, get shot down and even disappear without a trace. While totally unplanned in terms of timing, one U.S. aviation maintenance expert and author has penned a compelling upcoming novel that focuses on the darker side of aviation safety.

‘They Always Come in Three’ is aptly titled; inviting readers to return to their seats, fasten their seatbelts and make note of the exits in preparation for a literary adventure that is more than turbulent.

Synopsis
Department of Homeland Security Agent Michael Speed, with peculiar personality quirks and his partner Dave Cyrano are assigned to investigate a succession of unexplained airplane crashes.

Their pursuit takes them in several different directions. From Whidbey Naval Air Station to an arrogant Aryan nation's militant group to an obscure aviation company in Sweetwater, Texas, and then finally, to the top tier of the nation's aviation investigation organizations in Washington, D.C.

They find two common threads in their search, Avanti Aerospace and the European Alliance Consortium. However, each time they are close to uncovering the conspiracy, they are abruptly assigned to another project.

As the body count, from the airline disasters continues to pile up, Speed and Cyrano enlist the aid of Jason Brady, a teenage survivor of one of the air crashes with inside knowledge of the flight deck. Together they embark on a course that puts their lives in danger. When the smoke clears only one of investigators will be left standing.

“Both skeptics and the general public will revel in this latest novel of mine,” explains Crenshaw. “The situations are extraordinary and the engines run at full-throttle. The best thing, of course, as that it’s totally accurate and chillingly plausible.”

Continuing, “I’ve been working in the technical side of aviation for over three decades and have a deep, often untold insight into the real risks of getting on a plane. It seems we can’t escape air accidents as of late, so my book is as timely as ever. People seem to be extremely curious about what can turn a perfectly-trimmed plane on autopilot into a falling death bullet. This book has many of the answers, as well as depicting what takes place on the ground after the embers have been extinguished.”

With Crenshaw adding the final few touches prior to publication, interested readers are urged to purchase his existing novels – ‘ATC Emergency Code 7700’ (2002) and ‘Deadly Satellites’ (2008).

‘They Always Come in Three’ is due for imminent release.
