Here One Moment by Liane Moriarty

 Passengers on an airplane flight are unnerved with a woman stands up and walks down the aisle telling each person when and how they will die.  Worse still is when the predictions start coming true.

I really loved the first 3/4 of the book, but the ending was anticlimactic.  The epilogue however did have a nice twist.

4 stars.
