On November 1, 1955, a luxurious four-engine airliner en route to Portland, Oregon, mysteriously exploded in a brilliant glare of light seen for miles over the town of Longmont, Colorado, ending 44 lives. Four veteran CAB crash investigators and other agents rushed to the scene. To these men, the cause of the explosion was no mystery at all: someone had planted a bomb aboard the plane to commit mass murder. Based on thousands of pages of FBI documents, court transcripts, and interviews with the people who lived through these events, "Eleven Minutes" is the story of the crime which shocked and horrified the world -- and how it was solved by the most amazing feat of detective work in all of history.--publisher description.
