Three heart-poundingly realistic narratives race forward to an unthinkable end in this technically viable aviation-crime thriller—a somewhat dysfunctional and comedic romance aboard ill-fated Empire flight 808, a detective mystery with strange clues and even stranger characters, and the misadventures of two criminals transporting a mysterious device across the state of Wisconsin.
In the manner of best-selling author John J. Nance, the aviation sequences are smartly detailed, and because some chapters are based on the author’s actual experiences they ring authentic. Senior FBI agent Bob Capone’s hand-picked team of experts work feverishly through the night to connect the curious electronic box, the Bennetti crime family, and Empire captain Mike Nicholson. As the sun sneaks the first light into the nation's capitol, Capone is finally able to make sense of the myriad of bizarre events brought to his desk during the long night. Flight 808 will depart Chicago in only minutes, and the horrific nightmare will begin to unfold. One hope remains and Capone knows that he'll need more than a miracle to prevent the crazed Empire airline captain from fulfilling his diabolic quest.
Newgate's Knocker is a totally fictional story, however, the highly sophisticated electronic wave pulse generator described in the book is in fact based on tested technology, making the story line credible, and somewhat scary. Should such a device become viable and available to terrorist organizations, then Newgate's Knocker could prove prophetic
About the Author

He holds nearly every fixed wing flight certificate available and is a certified ground and instrument instructor. Although Mr. Peterson has been published in a number of professional magazines, this is his first full length novel.
Sample
A black, late-model, Lincoln Town Car broke the stillness as it sped down the gravel road leading to the house, its rear wheels slinging clumps of dirt-stained snow. Had any of the local residents passed by and observed the Town Car there may have been comments like, "They must be lost," or "we should stop and see if they can use some help." But the nearest home was a mile away, and few cars traveled County Road 17 past the old Kiley place.
There were two men in the car, both in their mid-forties, each occupying the better portion of his side of the seat. They pulled to a stop just past the mailbox, the driver nervous about the three-hundred-foot expanse of open ground between the road and the house. These men were not Minnesota boys and an attempt to plow through fourteen inches of virgin snow in their rented Town Car a mile from the nearest sign of life in subzero temperatures would have been foolish. They were smart to finish their journey on foot, even if it meant water damage to their six hundred-dollar suits and Bruno Magli shoes. At least they brought gloves and overcoats.
They exited simultaneously as the car stopped. The passenger waited until the driver circled around back to take the lead. They walked quickly up the hill through the deep drifts, one behind the other, completing the hundred-yard walk breathing hard and puffing small clouds of moisture. They stomped their feet on the wooden porch planks. The taller of the two swatted at one ankle with a glove, trying to dislodge packed snow while balancing awkwardly on one foot. They hesitated for a moment and exchanged a few words. Both men were huge but the leader was shorter and stockier. He was the one that kicked in the door.

Newgate Knocker edition by Greg W Peterson Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
As much as I’d like to sit here and say that Greg Peterson’s Newgate’s Knocker was a great aviation thriller, I can’t bring myself to do it. It took 70% of the book to get to the good stuff and then that was cut off mid conflict with the remainder of the book being a narration of action I truly wanted to see played out, not described to me. If it wasn’t already hard enough to read through pages of airplane part descriptions and aviation talk, there was a huge amount of confusion as to who the protagonist was.
Newgate’s Knocker starts out with the disappearance of Captain Kiley, Empire Airline’s captain who, along with the rest of the flight crew, was laid over for the night in Midland, Texas. What starts out as a missing persons case turns into a possible investigation into to terrorism at the hands of one of Empire’s on flight crew with connections even to organized crime.
I’m not sure if it was the intention of Peterson, but no matter how discombobulating the barrages of aviation talk seemed to get, the story line did distract you enough to where what you thought was going to happen didn’t. And who you thought was going to do it, didn’t. I ended up being pleased in that regard and thought to myself that wanting to see the outcome was the only reason I pushed myself to finish the book at all. But as I was saying, I think Peterson distracts you and does the whole switch-a-roo.
Peterson’s development of the mystery/thriller portion of this book is quite well done. However, the characters we get close enough to know aren’t all that significant in the end. The POV vacillates between 3rd person and 1st person with Mac, the flight engineer on the Empire flight. So, as one might do, I assumed that he would be a significant player in whatever went down. Maybe he’d save the day. But in the end, the depth with which his character development was done truly had little to do with anything. Most of the attention was placed on the head FBI agent on the case, Bob Capone,. However, his character only goes as far as the case goes.
I will say that although the aviation technical information went overboard, some of the verbiage was strung together in such a way that made flying an airplane seem like a beautiful dance.. To be truthful, the entire book was extremely well written and beautifully edited. Although some mild violence, no other warnings about content.
Good read by author with extensive knowledge with ability to engage reader. Price of book much lower than value of the read.
I enjoyed this book, the storyline and character development was very believable and like-able. The plot moved quickly and grabbed me and held my interest until the explosive climax. The plot is well thought out and flows well to the conclusion, it's a good story. This book just keeps you interested, the author has a great grasp of the inner workings of the daily life of an airline pilot and is a great storyteller. This is a great,fun to read novel,very entertaining.
