MOONSHOT: An Action-Adventure Thriller
The rock is coming. Only 152 people on Earth know.One of them promised his daughter he'd be home for Christmas.
For a year, the world's "weather satellites" have been a lie — pieces of a secret launch platform at the south pole of the moon, built to stop an asteroid the size of eleven city blocks.
Launch technician Mac Cook keeps the pad running. He also keeps a secret of his the tremor in his right hand, getting worse every week — counting down toward the one minute when eight digits, keyed in perfect order, decide the fate of the world.
Then a discredited old scientist's buried math reaches him. The rock was always going to miss. The missiles are the catastrophe.
A young sergeant who audits the universe like her murdered mother's ledgers checks the numbers. Twice. She gets the same answer.
And somewhere on that base, the most beloved man on the moon believes the rock is God's flood — and he has already chosen who survives it.
One minute of launch authority. Two votes against the world. Three missiles — and one of them is a lie.
A standalone action-adventure technothriller for readers of The Martian, early Michael Crichton, and Brad Thor. Every Point of No Return adventure stands alone. All of them go one step too far — and keep going.
