Publisher's Summary:
Kate Daniels is a co-pilot aboard the space shuttle Liberty. Liberty is to deploy a space defense system satellite created with the latest American technology. The shuttle crash-lands in the uncharted, mountainous frontier between North Korea and China.
As the ranking able-bodied officer, Kate takes charge, evacuating the crew from the crash site. A mountain warlord captures the Liberty's crew, intending to sell the shuttle and its cargo to the highest bidder. On the world stage, this crisis rapidly escalates. The North Koreans forbid an American search and rescue operation, sending their own troops into the region instead.
The technology on board Liberty is invaluable to both the North Koreans and the Chinese. The U.S. President orders American armed forces to full alert, preparing for a military incursion to locate the shuttle. This could be the flashpoint for the long-feared nuclear showdown between North Korea and the U.S.
Monitoring these spiraling events with a personal interest is Major Trev Galt, Kate Daniels' estranged husband. Since his breakup with Kate, Galt has become romantically involved with Meiko Kurita, White House correspondent for a Japanese news agency. Galt had thought he was over his wife, but Kate and the shuttle disappearing without a trace re-ignites his unresolved feelings for her.
While Kate and her crew struggle to survive, Galt and Meiko risk their lives to untangle the Korean Intercept; a race against time that pitches them into a labyrinth of treachery reaching from the corridors of Japanese corporate power to the blood-splattered back alleys of Tokyo, from the White House to the barren, hostile mountains of North Korea.

A very well thought out story line. The author seems well informed about military vehicles and armament as well as communication systems. The book could use a great deal of editing to correct a lot of grammatical and punctuation errors, but if you look past all that, it is a good read,
To much to imagine
Chose for the title. Book is totally unbeliveable. Also to predictable. Being ex military it was difficult to imagine. Thanks.
Action and believable
This is a different scenario with contemporary topics,a refreshing thriller with relationships at stake as well as reputations and
politics in the fray.No one comes out without losing something.
A great read.(In the genre of Vince Flynn)
International espionage thriller
Steven Mertz has delivered a spellbinding thriller with foreign Governments trying and almost stealing a NASA space shuttle with a new defense satellite by diverting the shuttle from its intended orbit and causes it to crash land in North Korea. The story line is well developed and will keep the reader captive throughout the book. I did receive an advance copy of this book for my honest review.
Realistically Twisted International Incident!
Realistic creative writing at its best when the author mixes a successful space shuttle launch gone wrong with high tech interference, international multi-nation plotting and a potential love triangle, depending on an unauthorized but greatly appreciated "lone wolf" warrior come together. This amazing plot keeps reader's spellbound throughout!
