Product Description
Product Description
Eleven year-old Ursula Neilsen never believed NASA's verdict that carelessness caused the death of her older sister, an astronaut on a routine mission to a crippled satellite, but there wasn't much a kid could do about it. Years later, she finds herself the target of someone who's trying to kill her because she knows too much. Seeking help from a disgruntled former NASA engineer, she learns the space agency is covering up the presence of an alien her sister made contact with. It's a secret that seems about to cost her her life.

Was hoping for more science, Dec 21 2007
By orbops - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Birds (Paperback)
An interesting concept tied to satellite communications technology. Unfortunately, I was looking for a little more hard science describing how the world became so reliant on satellites. I think the main characters needed a bit more depth and more interaction, and the story should have gone deeper into solving the mystery of why the communications system was failing. The background with Hughes Space Communications was a nice reminder of the 80s and early 90s, where the industry was back then.
