Publisher Description
The first novel featuring CIA agent Blaine McCracken from the USA Today–bestselling author, “one of the best all-out action writers in the business” (Los Angeles Review of Books).
A space shuttle disappears during a routine repair mission, 180 miles above Earth’s surface. An intelligence operative with a dark secret is murdered, his car set ablaze, while he is in the middle of fulfilling a depraved fantasy. And a reporter receives a message from a dying man that suggests the organization responsible may be one of the world’s most prestigious corporations.
The government knows just one man who can untangle this mystery: a throwaway on the deactivated list. Exiled to a desk job in Paris for stepping on the wrong toes, Blaine McCracken is a killer—a ruthless pursuer of truth who will let no one, friend or enemy, stand in his way when civilian lives are in danger. McCracken gets results, and his country needs him now more than ever. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Jon Land including rare photos from the author’s personal collection.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
When a baffling space shuttle disaster and an assassinated agent leave a secretive government outfit reeling, they’ve little choice but to call in a disgraced operative with a mile-wide rebellious streak. Whether he’s tangling with terrorist hijackers or working with a journalist to unravel a conspiracy, Blaine McCracken’s clever renegade tactics and sarcastic wit make this action-packed spy adventure supremely entertaining. Originally published in 1986, the first novel in Jon Land’s bestselling techno-thriller series remains as exciting—and disturbingly relevant—as ever.

Racing against time
A good thriller. Could not put it down as soon as I started. I was chasing down the chapters just as the characters were.
