A spectacular blast rips the heavens in broad daylight over the Indian Ocean south of Australia, damaging military and civilian satellites of the world’s major powers. Armed forces go on alert globally. The Russians accuse the United States of violating the Outer Space Treaty. The US government remains silent. Physicists Lee Markson and Katty Clarke join the world-wide search for the origin of the event—yet the more compelling the evidence they gather for the answer they suspect, the more their boss directs them to look elsewhere. Without explanation, the US Department of Defense classifies and confiscates data critical to their continuing investigation of the phenomenon and tries to discredit even the discussion of their suspicions. Then Markson disappears and Clarke finds her personal character under vicious attack in social media. Find out why in the hard science fiction thriller, Wake Turbulence, an Alcubierre Metric Connection novel by the author of its highly rated prequel CATSPAW.
