Dark figures in the Pentagon decide that, after the Apollo 17 moon mission, the last NASA moon mission, the moonshots should continue. In official Washington, the moon missions are cancelled. In the shadowy world in which Thomas Brennan and John Tyler are used to operating, funding and operational success depend upon being able to adapt to the new environment. Their newly created space program, without the need for oversight or approvals, advances in leaps and bounds. With Thomas Brennan's access to "black" programs looking for funding from the Pentagon, he siphons off both money and ideas whenever he comes across anything promising. John Tyler's personal network of people across the military and scientific worlds allows him to recruit the best and brightest. The two of them working together build an empire that no one knows about. How long can they keep their space program a secret?
