Publisher's Synopsis
Charlie Hardie finds himself in a steel box, tubes and wires attached to his body, trapped inside a satellite parked in orbit five hundred miles above the Earth. He has a year's supply of food, air, and water and no communication back to Earth, and he must complete his twelve months' duty or his wife and son will have an accident. Soon Hardie realize he's sitting in a veritable zero-G vault containing the most dangerous secrets in the world. And if his wife and son will ever be safe, Hardie is going to have to use those secrets as leverage against his faceless captors and force a crash-landing in one of the grittiest of urban hellholes. After years of exile, Hardie's arming up-and setting his sights on getting back home.
