On July 16, 1999, JFK Jr.’s plane vanished into the Atlantic off Martha’s Vineyard, and the man who led the search has never told the full story. Until now. Join Coast Guard Captain W. Russell “Russ” Webster and Historian Theresa Mitchell Webster for an inside look at their new book, The Last Flight: The Untold Story of the Search for JFK Jr. and the Race Against the Atlantic, and the largest search ever conducted for private citizens in American waters. Drawing on first hand experience, official records, and never-before-shared insights, Captain Webster and Theresa Webster take readers inside the largest and most expensive search ever conducted for private citizens in American waters — an extraordinary race against time, technology, and the unforgiving Atlantic, unfolding in the waters just beyond our shores.
