Marshall Hunter only wanted to flyāthe faster, the higher, the better. ButĀ Space Force has other plans for him: interplanetary search and rescue.
When a billionaire couple goes missing on their way to survey aĀ near-Earth asteroid, the nuclear-powered Borman is dispatched on anĀ audacious, high-speed interplanetary run to find the coupleās waywardĀ spacecraft and bring them home. Yet as they approach the asteroid,Ā the Borman itself becomes hopelessly disabled, while back in near-EarthĀ orbit, cislunar space falls into chaos as critical satellites fail and valuableĀ lunar mineral shipments disappear in transit. Facing an impossibleĀ choice between salvation and sacrifice, Marshall Hunter has to find aĀ way to save both his crewmates and Space Age civilization from an
insidious foe.
