On a beautiful May morning at New York’s JFK Airport, a routine plane departs for San Francisco. Security agent Bernice Adams finds a postcard of the Golden Gate Bridge bearing a worrying message. Who left the postcard behind, which flight is that person on, and what exactly does the message mean? Desperate to get someone to listen, she knows lives could be on the line. Initially the passengers are unsuspecting. But their suspicions grow and it's clear someone on the flight is planning something devastating. With no-one to help them, the passengers must work together to avert tragedy.

Determined to become a lawyer, Meredith discovers her passion for justice, fighting for civil rights and desegregation. But when the violence of the era strikes too close to home, her once tightly knit family must survive a devastating loss and rethink what it is that holds them together.
In His Father's Footsteps
Germany, 1945. As the Americans liberate the Buchenwald concentration camp, among the survivors are teenagers Emmanuelle and Jakob, who fell in love despite the suffering surrounding them. With help, they make their way to New York, resolved to make a new life on the Lower East Side, working at gruelling, poorly paid jobs. Decades later, Jakob has achieved enormous success, showing his son Max that America is truly the land of opportunity. Max is a Harvard graduate with friends among the wealthiest families in the world, and he chooses a perfect bride to start the perfect American family.

Four very different doctors battle disaster on the frontline every day. Bill Browning heads the trauma unit at San Francisco’s busiest emergency room. With his ex-wife and daughters in London, he immerses himself in his work and lives for the little time he can spend with his children. A rising star at her teaching hospital, it leaves Stephanie Lawrence no time for her young family. Harvard-educated Wendy Jones is a dedicated trauma doctor, trapped in an affair with a married cardiac surgeon. And Tom Wylie’s popularity with women rivals his superb medical skills, but he refuses to let anyone get too close.
