Into the abyss

Shaben, Carol2012
Book
This is the astonishing true life adventure story of a plane crash in the wilds of northern Canada, and the four men who survived to tell the tale. On a wintry October night in 1984, nine passengers boarded a Piper Navajo commuter plane bound for remote communities in the far north of Canada. Only four people--strangers from wildly different backgrounds--will survive the night that follows: the pilot, a prominent politician, an accused criminal and the rookie policeman escorting him. It follows four men's transformative journeys from the depths of physical and spiritual loss to the riches of lives begun anew.
