An alien satellite has been orbiting Earth since at least the 1950s. The U.S. Space Force wants to capture it and bring it back for analysis. China will do anything to stop them, even if it means risking nuclear war. This 42,000 word action-packed, technothriller set in the year 2022, is fiction. But it could become tomorrow’s headlines.

Historical Fact: The May 14th, 1954 edition of the San Francisco Examiner revealed to the public the existence of a mysterious satellite of unknown origin in a highly unusual polar orbit, later nicknamed the Black Knight. British astronomers estimated its weight at over 9 tons!

Space Force Major Curt Branson’s X-37C spaceplane has been damaged by a Chinese anti-satellite weapon. His oxygen is running out fast, and he has only two choices, crash land on the Arctic icecap with a slim chance of survival or make an emergency landing in Russia, against Presidential orders. What would you do?
