Dispatched on a trial run, NASA's SuperAegis satellite has been created as the foundation of an international antimissile defense system. But, moments after dispatch, it vanishes. Rear Admiral Jake Grafton fears something worse than a grave malfunction-he suspects sabotage...

But, times is running out, and the race is on for Grafton to blow the covert operation out of the water before an entire nation is brought to its knees.
