Publisher Description
Humanity's greatest journey becomes its deadliest mission.
Just days before the launch of the first crewed expedition to Mars, an astronaut dies in a tragic accident. Backup science officer Hattie Fredericks is thrust aboard as a last-minute replacement.
Her arrival breeds resentment. During the long voyage, a series of accidents turns deadly. The line between malfunction and murder begins to blur. Hattie trained for mission failure. Not for this.
A safe landing on Mars changes nothing except the odds of survival.
As deaths continue on the red planet, trust fractures and supplies dwindle. On Earth, journalist Chuck Gomez begins investigating the accidents and uncovers evidence that the mission's safety may have been compromised long before launch - and that someone is working hard to keep it quiet.
Stranded millions of miles from home, Hattie must uncover the cause of the deaths before Mars becomes their grave.
Mortal Mission is a near-future science fiction mystery where The Martian meets Agatha Christie. Perfect for readers who enjoy intelligent space thrillers, confined crews under pressure, and high-stakes survival.
