    About this ebook

    Voyager One is the remotest human object in existence, hurtling through the void of outer space more than twelve billion miles away.

    It should be all alone.

    Callie Woolf, Project Manager at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, is stunned when the tiny probe unexpectedly downloads a series of highly disturbing images. Within 24 hours she is running for her life.

    FBI Agent Brad Barnes is assigned to the case and unwittingly stumbles into a conspiracy which threatens to bring the United States to its knees. Unable to tell friend from foe, Brad and Callie must play a deadly cat-and-mouse game with the conspirators’ shadowy agents as they confront the unthinkable – that mankind may not be alone in the Universe.

    Voyager is an intelligent, modern-day conspiracy thriller by Carl Rackman, author of Irex.

    Praise for Carl Rackman’s first novel Irex:

    “A spectacularly good novel” - Terry Tyler, author of The Devil You Know

    “A tortuous tale with excellent characterisation”. - Tuesday Book Blog

    “It’s hard to believe this is a debut novel. It’s so good and the quality of the writing is excellent throughout.” - Between The Lines Review Blog

    Carl Rackman

    Hi! I'm Carl Rackman, a British former airline pilot turned author. I spent my working life travelling the world and this has given me a keen interest in other people and cultures. I've drawn on my many experiences for my writing. I write suspense thrillers with a grounded science-fiction theme. I like reading novels that feature atmospheric locales and I enjoy complex, absorbing storylines combined with rich, believable characters, so that's the sort of fiction I write. I try to create immersive worlds for the reader to explore, and characters who are more than just vehicles for the story. I come from a naval military background and have held a lifelong interest in military history and seafaring - all my books usually contain some of these elements! I hope you'll enjoy my books and leave reviews. I try to personally thank reviewers if they've particularly enjoyed my books. Find out more about me, my writing and my upcoming books at rackmanbooks.com. You can usually find me on Twitter - @CarlRackman - I'd love to link up with you as followers. Thanks for looking, Carl
