551. Title & Author: The Apollo Murders by Chris Hadfield (470 pages)

Genre: Fiction–Mystery

Completed: 17 September 2022


Summary & Review:

Just before the Apollo 18 mission is to launch, a terrible helicopter accident kills the commander of the mission. With the back-up ready to fill in, the mission pushes forward but soon encounters trouble with the Soviets in space. On top of the perils of space-based espionage and military action, NASA CAPCOM Kaz Zemeckis must also figure out who killed the original mission commander, and why. 


The author of this book is an experienced former astronaut which brought a lot of veracity to these fictional events. It was fun to see historical figures like Al Shephard and Gene Kranz pop up in this story and I’m always down to read about the Apollo years.
