Fiction by Chris Bohjalian.

Cassie the flight attendant is a hot mess. She drinks too much and does crazy or stupid things, and then forgets she has done them. She sleeps with strange men she never wants to see again, and sometimes forgets that too. And because her job takes her all around the world, she can do these crazy/stupid things in the United States AND abroad.
So far she's managed to keep her job with the airline, but when she wakes up in a strange hotel after a blackout in Dubai, she realizes that things may have gone too far. The UAE, like many Middle Eastern countries, is not particularly forgiving of foreigners who may be lawbreakers. Her one goal is to get back to New York unscathed. But after that, who knows what will happen?
This was a good story with interesting characters and a few surprises.
