Their Darkest Day

When Pan Am 103 exploded in the sky over Lockerbie on 21st December 1988, the world was horrified as the tale of international terrorism, airline ineptitude and political gamesmanship unfolded. This book presents the human suffering behind the disaster, and is a tale of loss and recovery as families piece together lives shattered by the explosion and organize emotional and political support groups to press governments around the world to change airline security and bring the bombers to justice. The authors won the New York State Associated Press Award for their coverage of the disaster.
