Opis
From top 100 Kindle bestselling author Steve Stone. Check out the storyline, and the great review below;
20 July 2017. Post-Obama, Colonel Lance Tucker is Commander of the next generation X-33 space shuttle Intrepid. The American and Russian Presidents convene for an historic dual launch.
As devastating Hurricane Ernie approaches, notorious international assassin 'The Chinaman' guns down both leaders, reigniting the New Cold War. General Jack Nelson orders Intrepid to travel back in time to change history - with hindsight, stopping the assassin should prove simple.
But who is The Chinaman? How does he know Lance's every movement? Senator Darrell McKay is helpful, but does his sinister Head of Security Vivian Kort have a hidden agenda? And what's out of place in TV footage of the double shooting, The Chinaman's car, and his unsuccessful assassination attempt on McKay?
The Chinaman's game of cat and mouse ultimately proves as dangerous as General Nelson's plan to destroy the super-storm with a secret neutron bomb....
A science fiction adventure, with over two-thirds of the action taking place on Earth, so will appeal to both science fiction and action adventure fans. 83,118 words.
Review; 'Steve Stone works at the tough but exciting interface between the thriller and the hardest of hard science fiction. In this second part of his four-book series, we find spaceflight, gangland violence, high politics and a clutch of plot twists. Based on deep research and imagination, the series has delivered plenty already and the final two volumes promise much more.' Martin Ince, Science Journalist. Author of Rough Guide to the Earth.
Previously in this series;
Intrepid (2010). Available in paperback and electronically.
Coming soon;
Intrepid - Revelations (2012).
Intrepid - Regression (2013).
