Science Fiction
In the second book of the Blue Gemini trilogy, Air Force
Majors Scott Ourecky and Drew Carson continue to fly highly
classified missions to intercept and destroy suspect Soviet
satellites. But after experiencing numerous close calls in orbit, the
astronauts soon discover that not all perils reside in the
sky. With his marriage already at risk because he cannot
explain his frequent absences and strange activities to his
wife, Ourecky learns that his unborn child may be in grave
danger as a radiation consequence of his flights into space.
Even as the Ourecky and Carson accumulate successful mission
after successful mission in space, other crucial events
occur much closer to home. Interservice rivalries reach new
heights as a caustic but highly influential Navy admiral
schemes to steal control of the Project from the Air Force.
Realizing that a Soviet GRU agent is operating in their
midst, a shadowy team of counter-intelligence operatives
scramble to shield the Project’s secrets from discovery,
leading to a confrontation that bears fatal consequences. As they train to accomplish more difficult missions against
complicated targets, Ourecky and Carson are asked to
volunteer to risk their lives one more time in an extremely
hazardous rescue mission. The stakes are high; even as they
leave the launch pad, there is no certainty that either man
will return.
