Description
By: Homer Hickam
A renegade astronaut hijacks a shuttle and blasts off on a high-speed chase to the moon—“a great adventure yarn” (The Washington Post Book World) from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Rocket Boys
“[Full of] escalating tension, danger, and excitement.”—The New York Times Book Review
The shuttle is hijacked. Now the countdown to adventure begins. . . .
Jack Medaris is a man haunted by his past and driven by a dream: He’s risking everything to “borrow” the Columbia—and pilot it to the moon. He didn’t plan on an unexpected passenger, beautiful celebrity daredevil and scientist Penny High Eagle. To Penny, this hijacking will test every bit of her mettle as an adventurer—and as a woman. To Jack, the mission is a personal quest—to return to the moon and bring back what America left behind, something so explosive it could change the future of the world.
Now, as the U.S. government scrambles to the chase, and as deadly forces are deployed from earth to stop them, a man and a woman find their fates inextricably entwined. And in the savage emptiness of deep space, their only hope is to join forces to reach the lunar surface.
Then comes the hard part. Getting home alive.
