Space Resources, Inc. (SRI) mines asteroids for
the riches a populated Earth needs without
degrading the planet. Yet there are those
opposed to progress in whatever its form such as
the Gaia Alliance, a front group for
eco-terrorists. During a violent attack on the
Moon, the terrorists steal an exploration ship,
arm it, and rename it the Rock Killer.
Charlene "Charlie" Jones of SRI security is
trying to infiltrate the Gaia Alliance's cabal
to find evidence linking them to the murder of
her fianc?. But a run-in with the law threatens
to reveal her identity to the dangerous men of
the Alliance.
Simultaneously,
SRI Director Alexander Chun is traveling to the
asteroid belt to bring a kilometer-long
nickel-iron rock back to Earth orbit to mine for
its valuable metals. Following him and his
multi-national team is the Rock Killer. Without
armaments, millions of miles from help, Chun
must stop those who threaten him and the lives
of his crew.
