Overview
In this cutting-edge legal thriller, a female astronaut is charged with committing the first murder in space—and her reluctant lawyer confronts the limits of justice when the crime scene orbits 250 miles above Earth.
Law professor Nolan Cruz thought his courtroom days were behind him—until he gets a call from NASA. A young astronaut is dead, and another is on her way back to Earth in custody.
The suspect, Charlotte Adams, claims she acted in self-defense. Few believe her besides Nolan, her old college flame, and he is hesitant to take on her case, especially with the power of the prosecutor, the FBI, and the victim's Senator father lining up against her. But Nolan can't stand by and let an innocent woman spend the rest of her life in jail—even if it means risking his job, his marriage, and possibly his life.
Fallen Astronaut examines the extremes of power and ambition in a legal thriller that blends cutting-edge space exploration with propulsive courtroom twists.
