Résumé

A nerve-shattering technothriller of the Free World's countdown to disaster. February 20, 1959, the Canadian prime minister stands before the House of Commons to announce that his government has canceled the CF-105 Avro Arrow supersonic fighter-interceptor program. What were the reasons... the real reasons? Were the Americans involved?In this tale of intrigue, the Russians plan an air strike on North America.
Canadian and American Intelligence get wind of it through secret channels. The Arrow is canceled but, with the help of the Americans, the machine is deployed for one last mission: to catch the Russians with evidence of its strike force. While the public mourns the death of the supersonic fighter, the Arrow blasts its way across the Pacific on a vital, long-range, photo-recon mission to save the Free World and avert World War III.
Behind the controls is a hand-picked Royal Canadian Air Force pilot. Target-Siberia.
Historical fiction author Daniel Wyatt is Canadian, born and raised on the prairies of Saskatchewan. He now resides with his wife and two children in Burlington, Ontario, thirty miles outside Toronto. His first published work was a set of first-person stories from World War II allied air force veterans called Two Wings and a Prayer by Boston Mills Press, Erin, Ontario, Canada in 1984. This was followed up in 1986 by Maximum Effort with the same publisher.
In 1990, Wyatt made the switch to historical fiction with The Last Flight of the Arrow, a techno-thriller set during the Cold War years of the late 1950's. Originally published by Random House of Canada, it sold 20, 000 copies in paperback form. The Mary Jane Mission came out two years later, also by Random House. Wyatt's other published works include aviation magazine articles in Canada and the United States.
The Last Flight of the Arrow has been re-released as an e-book by LTDBooks in Canada. A big baseball fan, Wyatt enjoys collecting Detroit Tigers memorabilia. In the summer months, he coaches a local fastball team.
