About this audiobook
Their ticket to the stars wasn't supposed to be one-way...
When a group of prize-winning high school students blasted off on a mission to space, their parents beamed with pride.
When news of the disaster came in, a nation mourned.
But nothing is truly as it seems.
Now, when one couple spots a hole in the official story, their grief morphs into a determination to find out what has really happened to their son.
No matter what, they will stop at nothing in their hopeful bid to see him again.
And the truth they uncover could change the world forever...
