Opis

A science fiction story of danger and intrigue. Eight members of SSI, Inc. aboard the Space Station PARADISE, must make desperate decisions regarding their survival. Earthside, a DNA altering plague sweeps across the globe, their only true lifeboat. Survival will depend on trust and cooperation, a rare commodity aboard the space station as two individuals will insist they are the rightful COS, or Commander of Station. Several of the scientists were to be replaced as SSI's shuttle Endeavor-3 arrives with new personnel, but the plague places all of them on the same team despite their fears and hostilities. Each member of the team has known and unknown reasons for placing their loyalty elsewhere. Who will anyone trust? Information from earth becomes scarcer each day as contacts begin to fail. The usually reliable computer systems begin to act strangely regarding who can access information. The station's computer specialist claims to be working on it, but most believe he is really causing it for personal reasons. The station personnel must make several critical decisions regarding their survival. How long can they stay in space? When and how should they return to earth? What kind of alliance of co-operation can they form with the Russian and Japanese space stations? Who can be trusted to guide them to safety?
