À propos de cet audio

#1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER

The #1 bestselling Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield is back with an exceptional Cold War thriller from the dark heart of the Space Race.

“An exciting journey to an alternate past” Andy Weir, author of The Martian

Nail-biting” James Cameron, writer and director of Avatar and Titanic

Not to be missed” Frederick Forsyth, author of The Day of the Jackal

Explosive” Gregg Hurwitz, author of Orphan X

Exciting, authentic” Linwood Barclay, author of Find You First

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 the fascinating technical detail that fans of The Martian loved, and reminiscent of the thrilling claustrophobia, twists and tension of The Hunt for Red October, The Apollo Murders puts you right there in the moment. Experience the fierce G-forces of launch, the frozen loneliness of Space and the fear of holding on to the outside of a spacecraft orbiting the Earth at 17,000 miles per hour, 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.

Chris Hadfield is an incredible human, teacher, musician, pilot, scientist, astronaut and now, author. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect when I pre-ordered this book, but did so based on his likability and CV. As an avid mystery and thriller audiobook reader, I was very satisfied to realize that I was completely immersed in the story, as I would be with a Daniel Silva, Candice Fox or James Patterson story. What I really appreciated was the skilful way Hadfield enlightened his audience in the finer points of space travel, as he’s experienced firsthand. I cannot wait for his next novel!

Exciting space thriller - can’t wait for the next one!
