Too many people seem to have developed an unhealthy obsession to find the remains of an aircraft which went missing in the Sahara desert in the 1930s...
Why is Max Stafford, security consultant, beaten up in his own office? What is the secret of the famous Thirties aircraft? Why has Paul Bilson disappeared in North Africa?
The journey to Flyaway is a race to save Paul Bilson, a race to find the buried aircraft and - above all - a race to return alive...

'As long as meticulous craftsmanship and honest entertainment are valued, and as long as action, authenticity, and expertise still make up the strong framework of the good adventure/thriller, Desmond Bagley's books will surely be read.' REGINALD HILL, Twentieth Century Crime and Mystery Writers
'Bagley is a master storyteller.' DAILY MIRROR
Desmond Bagley wrote 16 novels, becoming one of the world's top-selling authors, with his books translated into more than 30 languages. He was born in 1923 in Kendal and brought up in Blackpool, beginning his working life, aged 14, in the printing industry. After working in an aircraft factory during the Second World War, he decided to travel, working his way through Europe and southern Africa, and in 1951 joined the gold mining industry before becoming a freelance journalist in Johannesburg, where he wrote his first novel, The Golden Keel, in 1962. In 1964 he returned to England, finally settling in Guernsey with his wife, where he died in 1983.
