Publisher's summary

A USA Today best seller.

Captain Calli Chase races against time to thwart a plot that leaves the fate of humanity hanging in the balance in this new thriller from international best-selling author Patricia Cornwell.

In the aftermath of a NASA rocket launch gone terribly wrong, Captain Calli Chase comes face-to-face with her missing twin sister - as well as the startling truth of who they really are. Now, a top secret program put in motion years ago has spun out of control, and only Calli can redirect its course.

Aided by cutting-edge technologies, the NASA investigator and scientist turned Space Force pilot sets out on a frantic search for the missing link between the sabotaged rocket launch and her predetermined destiny…a search that someone else seems very interested in stopping.

From NASA to the Chase family farm, to the White House to distant orbits of space, Calli plays a high-stakes game of hide-and-seek with a cunning and ruthless adversary. One wrong move will unleash cataclysmic consequences reaching far beyond the boundaries of Earth.

This heart-pounding Captain Chase thriller from Patricia Cornwell will leave readers desperate for more.

I'm Hooked

These stories blend technical info, thrills and suspense while keeping the characters whole (not flat).

Looking forward to the next installment(s).

Note to the Author - Cape Canaveral Air Force Station (CCAFS) was renamed Cape Canaveral Space Force Station (CCSFS) in 2020.
Thank you for writing such strong, intelligent women characters.

Hi used to live in the Tidewater area so really enjoyed the history aspect.

The story was great and was hard to put the book down. Patricia Carol mobile has always been one of my favorite authors because she writes about things in Virginia.

Excellent!!

Patricia Cornwell has done it again with the second installment in the Captain Calli Chase series. I was so caught up in the storyline nothing else seemed even remotely important. January LaVoy gave such an amazing performance I felt as if I was experiencing everything as it happened. I highly recommend this book/audiobook but suggest starting with the first in this series.

No Scarpetta?

I was a little disappointed that this wasn’t a Scarpetta book. With that being said, I LOVED this storyline. Patricia Cornwell has worked her magic once again

Spectacular!

Story line, excellent!
Being a native Norfolkite I appreciate the proper pronunciation of my home town and out lying areas. I could almost see every movement made throughout Hampton Roads and being a lover of space stories, this brought it all home.
