The second in the critically acclaimed “vivid, heart-stopping, and unforgettable” (Craig Whitlock, #1 New York Times bestselling author) Targeted nonfiction series
1988: Four days before Christmas, a terrorist bomb rips apart a Boeing 747 six miles over Scotland, raining bodies, wreckage, and debris across the small market town of Lockerbie. The horrifying attack, which killed 270 men, women and children, would launch one of the world’s largest manhunts, spanning decades across dozens of countries.
Now, for the first time, the full story of Pan Am 103 is revealed. Drawing on hundreds of hours interviews with victims’ families, Scottish and American investigators and prosecutors—and tens of thousands of pages of court records, investigative reports and personal papers—Carr and Scott deliver the definitive and heartbreaking account of the bombing, the hunt for the killers, and the decades-long pursuit of justice.
