Good action story with the essence of LOST without the drawn out weirdness.

Riddle's book has a very interesting premise -- that involves a horrific plane crash and time travel. However, as usual with books and movies on time travel, the problem comes at the time when the author has to explain to us as the audience how the characters traveled either into the future or back to the past, and what the stakes are. It was at that point, that the story started to lose its momentum, and it went from one in which I as a reader thought "I can't wait to see what happens next" to "PLEASE, lets just get to the end!"
