Publisher's Synopsis
A NASA mission to Venus has a dark secret.
Grace Parkowski has her dream job. Piloting remotely-controlled humanoid robots to explore Venus from an air-conditioned room in Los Angeles is the next best thing than actually being there on the hostile planet. But things start to happen. A dragon attacks her on her first mission; the answer to its appearance opening up more questions than it closes. Strange errors show up in subsequent trips to Venus, and neither Grace nor her Space Force boyfriend can figure out what's going on. But, they do learn that the military and CIA are involved in a secret program called Bronze Knot that casts a shadow on the entire Venus effort. When she pushes too far, Grace finds herself on the run from shadowy agents working at the fringes of the federal government. From sunny Los Angeles to arid Barstow to the launch mecca of Cape Canaveral, Grace fights to uncover the truth. What is Bronze Knot, and why are people willing to kill to keep its secrets? Find out in Lag Delay!
