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 fascinating technical detail, twists and tension, The Apollo Murders puts you right there in the moment. Experience the dark majesty of space, the fierce G-forces of launch and the rush of holding on to the outside of a spacecraft travelling at 17,000 mph, 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.

Soon to be a major TV series from Altitude and SS's Balboa Productions

Industry Reviews

It's a very rare book that combines so many things I love, from taut suspense and highly realistic action, to the golden age of space exploration. There's even an underwater scene! But Chris Hadfield has done it, and with the rigorous detail you'd expect from a seasoned astronaut. I couldn't put this book down until the gasping conclusion - James Cameron

An explosive thriller from a writer who has actually been to Space and back. Strap in for the ride! - Gregg Hurwitz

There's maybe one person on Earth with the writing chops and the expertise

to write a to-the-Moon thriller this exciting, this authentic. Chris Hadfield is that guy - Linwood Barclay

Not to be missed. Even in fiction there is authenticity. It is either there... or it is not. With Chris Hadfield it is, because everything he describes he has really seen - Frederick Forsyth
