Resumen del Editor

Deep space holds secrets…

…and one astronomer for NASA has found a big one.

But it's not what she thinks.

Dr. Melody Adams, a physicist at the Gemini North Observatory, was studying Pluto in the telescope data, and it struck her as odd. The numbers didn't make sense. Could there be an extraterrestrial object in our solar system?

She followed protocol.

The scientific community didn't believe her.

And before she knew what happened, her career was over.

The day that changed Melody's life was like any other over the previous two years. She'd found she had a gift for writing, and her career as an author had almost healed the pain of losing her job. When the Secret Service rang her bell, everything changed.

Something was nearing Saturn…

…and it was slowing down.

Had she been right about the object?

You'll love this hard science fiction novel because Melody is about to find out that everything she knew about space and time was wrong.

Definitely hard science fiction…

…the lead up was painful. So much fluff just to get to the last little bit of good stuff. Skip if you have anything on your wishlist before this one

Bad writing, poor science, emphasized by narrator

The author writes action like he's programming it -- step-by-step of each movement in a way that detaches the reader from the material. The main character is written like a stereotypical woozy romance heroine, who is continually overwhelmed by emotion and has to remind herself to think and act. The choice of voice actor unfortunately accentuates this shortcoming. Frequent reflections on recent events, combined with and over-explanation of basic facts utterly removes any sense of immediacy, In short, expect a long, slow slog.
The engineering details and space program details seem accurate, yet when the author veers into any science field I know he makes major errors. Bafflingly the main characters (all PhDs) spend plenty of time covering basic elementary school facts, yet if the physicist heroine made the errors in this book any space company would fire her. The misuse of the term "extra-terrestrial" was particularly jarring. The attempt to make the story "gee whiz, wow, who would've ever thought of that?" might work in a young adult book, yet any science fiction enthusiast is unlikely to find an original idea here. Save your credits.
