Synopsis

Ninety-five years ago the enormous interplanetary space vehicle, the Pacifica, with a numerous crew, suddenly and inexplicably disappeared as it neared the planet Pluto. None of the probes directed towards the planet after the disaster found any evidence that the vessel and its crew had ever existed. Now, a century later, the wreck of the huge ship has been sighted, lying shrouded in the hazy-black starlight on the Plutonian surface. A shuttle has been fitted for the dangerous journey to the seventh planet, and with three crewmembers aboard, has made the first attempt to reach Pluto since the loss of the Pacifica. As the shuttle approaches the planet, it also 'suddenly and inexplicably' disappears and is lost. Although the crew of three is believed to have perished, they have not, and will carry on with their mission: to determine how the Pacifica met its fate. The truth, however, may be found only beyond reason, or even beyond imagination, and the three astronauts may wish that they never sought answer to this great mystery.

À propos de l'auteur

Michael D. Christensen was born in Cumberland, Maryland. Having attended public schools in New Jersey and California, he matriculated at the University of Nevada (Reno) in 1967. Soon afterwards he gave up his studies to spend two years in the Argentine Republic, after which he enrolled at Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah, and continued with his studies intermittently, over the next six years, graduating in 1975, with a baccalaureate in History. After several aimless years, and a number of unsuccessful attempts to establish himself as a writer of fiction, he was forced to find work to support himself, and was able to dedicate a limited amount of time to writing. The author’s life was given more stability in 2003 with his marriage to Sidney Ann. In 2006 his first full length mature novel The Tomb of the Devils was published. Currently, the author is working on his next novel, Battles Long Ago, scheduled for publication in 2007, and is making initial preparations for another project, a novel with the working title of Civil War in a Small Kingdom.
