Overview

"We choose to go to the Moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard...", stated former President Kennedy on September 12, 1962. These words inspired a nation in the initial race to the Moon. Now over half a century later these words are moving the world to action once more.

A terrorist attack on the National Air & Space Museum in Washington, DC ignites a new and more deadly race to the Moon than ever before. Too bad the United States has allowed its manned space program to fall apart. The space shuttles are museum pieces and the International Space Station now belongs to the United Nations.

When intelligence reports reveal China's plan to establish a permanent base on the Moon, former astronaut, U.S. President Olivia Kane is faced with a challenge she must confront: Will nuclear weapons soon be aimed at the United States from above, or will the Moon be the site of the next great war? Find out in this suspense-filled thriller.

His writing draws on his childhood passion for science fiction and military history, and his experiences as a lawyer and business executive. His first novel, Waking Apollo, was inspired by his memories of the early days of manned space flight, leading up to Apollo 11, the first manned landing on the Moon.
