BIRD OF PREY

Book ID/图书代码: 09775007B17706

English Summary/英文概要: In space, a technological nightmare orbits the Earth, stalking its prey. Sheathed in a black multifaceted skin, a secret all but invisible against the darkness of space, the killer satellite hunts with one of the deadliest weapons ever created. It is Zeus-----and like the god of myth it hurls lightning from the heavens.

Astronaut Kelsey Newton and her crewmates aboard the International Space Station have just settled in for a six-month mission when they discover the existence of Zeus. Alone and defenseless in orbit, the astronaouts report what they know, enen at the risk of becoming a target themselves. The job of finding out who placed the weapon in space falls to Kelsey’s finacé, ex-Navy SEAL Nolan Kilkenny.

Racing against time, Kilkenny must search through the wreckage of the past and find the key to disarming Zeus if he’s going to save the love of his life----and opposing him is an army of mercenary killers and a megalomaniacal tycoon whose craving for power will plunge the world into chaos.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 在宇宙中,一场技术噩梦正环绕着地球,围捕他的猎物。被多方面的黑色皮肤所覆盖,一个不可见的秘密正在宇宙的黑暗处萌生,这个杀手卫星正以一个前所未见的杀伤性武器在捕杀。它就是宙斯——如同神话中的神一样,它从天堂投下了一记闪电。
宇航员凯尔茜•牛顿和她的同事们要在宇宙空间站完成一个为期六个月的任务,他们刚登陆到空间站,就发现了宙斯的存在。宇航员们孤立的身处空间站的轨道中,一点防御装备都没有,甚至冒着成为靶子的危险,报道了这一情况。调查到底是谁把武器留在空间站的任务落到了凯尔茜的未婚夫头上——前海军诺兰•齐尔肯尼。
如果齐尔肯尼要救他爱人的命,他必须争分夺秒的从过去的宇宙残骸中探寻解除宙斯武装的方法——他要面对的是一支唯利是图的杀手部队和一个狂热追求权力的将军,想要把这个世界拖入混乱。(YHL)
