      Four years after the bombing that destroyed part of the dome protecting the Moon's largest city, an Anniversary Day celebration brings more trouble. The fates of Det. Bartholomew Nyquist, a veteran of the original bombing; Moon Security Chief Noelle DeRicci, a dedicated professional despite her personal feelings for Nyquist; and Retrieval Artist Miles Flint, a specialist at recovering stolen items and people, team up as new violence threatens to destroy the Moon's fragile human habitat. Set in the not too distant future, the latest entry in Rusch's popular sf thriller series (The Disappeared; Duplicate Effort) combines fast-paced action, beautifully conflicted protagonists, and a distinctly "sf noir" feel to tell a complex and far-reaching mystery. VERDICT Compulsively readable with canny plot twists, this should appeal to series fans as well as action-suspense readers.
