Product description...

Ever since his young protégé Dr. Shamir died in a dreadful space explosion, Doc Murphy has been hounded, beaten, abducted and his family held hostage by a hostile government. Confused with inexplicable musings from his past, he struggles to keep pace with the powerful disruptions to his once peaceful life. Racing from one calamity to another, he teams up with a smuggler fresh out of jail, a humorless old man, and a Space Agency operative to track a cryptic signal beacon from beyond settled space. Pursuing a course that stretches human ingenuity to the limit, Doc must push himself to the brink, risking his life in a battle against time to uncover the mystery of Dr. Shamir’s death.

Inside
The commander stated, "Mr. Brady is a key member of the crew, he is the person that actually built the sled, he knows all the components in the propulsion system. He did the programing; he knows how it works. If something went wrong out there, there would be no way to fix it. The other crew may be able to eventually figure it out but how long would it take? The only person that knows all the programing in the system chip and accelerator boards and symmetry programs is Mr. Brady. We are studying it but it will take days to get up to speed, we are at eight days now, I am afraid it would put Josh's chances of survival near impossible without food, water, and oxygen even with reprocessing."
Without thinking, Doc blurted out, "I know those systems," then stopped and felt his stomach tighten up, realizing what he had just done.  Looking around the table he saw all eyes on him.
