In The Mile High Club, best-selling Georgia novelist William Rawlings has brought the reader the latest Matt Rutherford adventure.  When the naked body of a former girlfriend is discovered in the forest miles from the nearest road, no one can figure how she got there—until the discovery of a plane crash some thirty miles away containing her ID and a naked male body….  In a fast moving tale involving corporate greed, cutting edge research in biofuels, private jets and small town politics, plus the mysterious death of a seemingly innocent woman, Matt is drawn deeper into a web of deception that eventually threatens his very existence.

Rawlings is a great storyteller, penning a tumultuous tale that ranges from the forests of rural Georgia to the penthouses and luxury condos of metropolitan Atlanta. With a sharp pen and even sharper wit, he has created believable characters in a carefully crafted plotline that will keep the reader guessing until the very end. Rawlings’s books are intelligently written, and consistently described as true “page-turners.” They make for great recreational reading.

"An incredible read! What a page-turner with an intricate plotline! It took all my strength not to race to the last page to find out who-dun-it!”

NANCY GRACE, CNN Host and Legal Commentator

“The Mile High Club is a breathtaking sprint from intriguing start to frantic finish. I picked the book up one evening and finished it less than twenty-four hours later—a mad dash inspired by an insatiable desire to know what had happened and what was going to happen. William Rawlings is at his best in the satisfying whodunit. ”

DAN ROPER, Editor/Publisher, Georgia Backroads Magazine

“The Mile High Club has it all. There is a plot with more twists and turns than a rural highway in Georgia. The characters are well-defined and believable, both the good guys and the not-so-good guys. I am worn out trying to help the book’s protagonist, Matt Rutherford, make it through to the end in one piece. Not an easy job. Williams Rawlings has turned out a masterpiece and I can’t wait for his next effort. This is an “A-Plus” thriller. ”

DICK YARBROUGH, Syndicated Columnist and Writer

"The Mile High Club continues Rawlings’s mastery of the Southern Thriller. In a skillfully detailed tale punctuated by injections of wry humor, Matt Rutherford returns to find himself embroiled in a mystery surrounding the bizarre death of a beautiful young woman. With colorful but credible characters Rawlings has once again penned a gripping story of corporate greed, cutting-edge science, sex, drugs, deception and murder. ”

ROGER K. THOMAS, PHD, Professor Emeritus of Psychology, University of Georgia

“William Rawlings uses the state of Georgia for the backdrop of his latest mystery. He knows the state, his plot and his characters so readers can relax and enjoy the ride, knowing they are in the hands of a master writer. ”
