Cosmonaut

By Peter Mcallister

Book Overview

The next world war will not begin in the Middle East, or even on Earth. The next world war will be waged in space-on an orbiting international space station... Someone on board is a murderer. Someone on board is planning to destroy the station. Someone on board is hiding a secret so incredible its keepers would do anything to stop it from being exposed. And one astronaut must find a way to warn NASA-and the world-of a devastating conspiracy whose only trace is a single word: Cosmonaut

Customer Reviews

A fantastic techno-thriller! Better than Michael Crichton!!

I read this book in two nights. Absolutely could not put it down! Wonderfully rich characters, suspenseful mystery that kept me guessing, and perhaps the most exciting action sequences I've ever read. This would make one hell of a movie.On the International Space Station, an American astronaut is brutally murdered. The suspects are all Russian cosmonauts. NASA needs to send an American up to the ISS to solve the murder. Edge Reynolds is a former NASA shuttle pilot, now working as a cop with a specialty in forensics. He quit the space program without ever leaving Earth after his wife was murdered. Now, NASA comes calling. He is shuttled up to the ISS to spend time with four possible suspects, all of whom seem to be keeping an amazing secret. I don't want to spoil anything by saying any more. READ THIS BOOK!Peter McAllister is the new Michael Crichton. But better.
