Airborne

AIRBORNE * * * Dr. Melissa Van Meer is flying back East to give a presentation that could get her out of the lab and in front of the people with money--money for grants to fund her research into life-saving inoculations for children in developing countries. She's heard about the virus that's spreading around the world--but she isn't too alarmed yet. During her years growing up in India, she saw plenty of disease. And then she gets on a plane where one by one the passengers are dying. The pilot is unconscious. The doctors are dead. And the airport is closed. Melissa's no hero... but she's all they've got.
