Suspense
THE PLACE The International Space Station. Docked to it,
the Space Shuttle Constitution. Crewed by ten astronauts
trained to recover the $100-million cargo aboard the first
privately launched lunar sample-return mission. THE EVENT Sabotage. The containers from the Moon hold more
than rocks and moondust, and there are those who are
willing to kill to keep that knowledge from the world. So begins the riveting new novel by acclaimed writing team
Judith & Garfield Reeves-Stevens -- a relentless tale of
high-tech conspiracy and suspense that reaches back to the
darkest secrets of the space race of the 1960s, and ahead
to the startling new technologies that will drive us to the
Moon in the next decade. Freefall marks the long-awaited return of the heroes of
Icefire -- the Reeves-Stevens novel Stephen King hailed
as: "The best suspense novel of its kind since The Hunt for
Red October." Now U.S. Navy Captain Mitch Webber, outspoken oceanographer
Cory Rey, and Air Force Major Wilhemina Bailey of the
United States Space Command are reunited in an even more
harrowing adventure that pits them against the ruthless
inheritors of a staggering conspiracy that could change
history. From the covert infiltration of China's most secure
aerospace facility and the stirring heroism of astronauts
and cosmonauts confronting disaster in space, to sudden
violence on ordinary suburban streets and the startling
revelation of America's most secret space program, Freefall
is a nonstop explosive read that in true Reeves-Stevens
fashion makes readers wonder where truth ends and fiction
begins.
