McGovern, however, finds that he must share his command with a beautiful female Russian cosmonaut. Together they face traitors, assassins, and the Chinese military that will stop at nothing to end their quest. As the coalition’s crew battle for their lives on the unforgiving surface of the Moon, China’s true plans for global domination emerge, sending the world on a collision course toward nuclear war. High praise for RED MOON from former NASA astronauts Edgar Mitchell- Apollo 14, Scott McLeod- Lunar Module test astronaut, Norman Thagard, first US crewman on the Russian MIR space station.

Not as good a Hive but still good. All about the battle for the moon and US vs China for the rights. He has one more that I may get.
