Internationally bestselling astronaut Chris Hadfield is back with an exceptional Cold War thriller from the dark heart of the Space Race. 1973: a final top-secret mission to the Moon. Three astronauts in a tiny module a quarter of a million miles from home. A quarter of a million miles from help. As Russian and American crews sprint for a secret bounty hidden away on the lunar surface old rivalries blossom and the political stakes are stretched to breaking point back on Earth. Houston flight controller Kazimieras 'Kaz' Zemeckis must do all he can to keep the NASA crew together while staying one step ahead of his Soviet rivals. But not everyone on board Apollo 18 is quite who they appear to be. Full of the fascinating technical detail that fans of The Martian loved and reminiscent of the thrilling claustrophobia twists and tension of The Hunt for Red October The Apollo Murders puts you right there in the moment a quarter of a million miles from home - a quarter of a million miles from help. Experience 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 17 000 miles per hour as told by a former Commander of the International Space Station who has done all of those things in real life. Strap in and count down for the ride of a lifetime.
