Publisher's Summary: A renegade rocket man haunted by his past and a beautiful daredevil who thinks she can do it all, until she finds herself on the adventure of her life. A death-defying mission so risky, so audacious, that no one would try it, unless the fate of the world depended on its success. When Jack Medaris decides to "borrow" the space shuttle Columbia, he doesn't want to be a hero or a villain. He's a man of science driven by the memory of the woman who once inspired him. Risking his life, his name, and everything he has, to sidetrack the shuttle and take it on an unscheduled detour to the moon, where the secrets of his past, and the future of the world, await him. But when the meticulously plotted launch goes fatally wrong, and payload specialist Penny High Eagle further complicates Jack's plan, he must confront unforeseen challenges both in space and on the ground. Author Homer H. Hickam, Jr., retired NASA engineer, offers a brilliantly imagined, endlessly entertaining return to space adventure, strapping us into the cockpit of the shuttle and hurtling us into orbit and beyond. |
