Publisher Description

From the New York Times bestselling author of the Kate Shugak series, Red Planet Run is the thrilling conclusion to the hit Star Svensdotter trilogy by Dana Stabenow.

Twelve years after Caleb's death, Star Svensdotter continues to silently mourn him as she comes to terms with the repercussions of The Big Lie. World Builders, Inc. is completing its first asteroid-based Bernal sphere, and the Svensdotter twins are at a restless age. Yet Star finds herself forced to look back to Terra as well as out to the stars.

When the opportunity to undertake a survey mission of Mars' Cydonia region presents itself, Star leaps at the chance. Drifting above Mars' surface, the family rediscovers the wonder of pure exploration. With strength and humour, Star addresses her parenting difficulties, battles twenty-first-century piracy, connects with a self-sustaining Martian colony, and discovers a mysterious link with the Red Planet's—and Earth's—ancient past.
