~ Trade Paperback A high-stakes thriller unlike any other, The Apollo Murders is an exciting journey into the dark heart of the Cold War and the space race (from Canadian astronaut and bestselling author Chris Hadfield) that captures the fierce G-forces of launch, the frozen loneliness of space, and the fear of holding on to the outside of a spacecraft orbiting the Earth at seventeen thousand miles per hour as only someone who has experienced all of these things in real life can. Full of the fascinating technical detail that fans of Andy Weir's The Martian loved, and reminiscent of the thrilling claustrophobia, twists, and tension of Tom Clancy's The Hunt for Red October, The Apollo Murders is a brilliantly realized alternative version of history that is as tense as the Cuban Missile Crisis itself. "Hadfield’s mastery of the details enables him to generate high levels of tension." -- Publishers Weekly Show more
