In this powerful trilogy, three women navigate impossible choices in their quest for justice, freedom, and personal potential. From Justine’s courageous mission to save a billionaire friend’s trafficked daughter, to Caroline’s fight to liberate others from the same fate she is still facing, to Ava’s ultimate reckoning with her past.

One of the most elusive and controversial figures in NASA's history, George W. S. Abbey was called "the Dark Lord", "the Godfather", and "UNO" (unidentified NASA official) by those within NASA.

From young pilot and wannabe astronaut to engineer, bureaucrat, and finally director of the Johnson Space Center, Abbey's story has never been fully told - until now. The Astronaut Maker takes listeners inside NASA to learn the real story of how Abbey rose to power and wielded it out of the spotlight.

They passed the same battery of tests at the legendary Lovelace Foundation as did the Mercury 7 astronauts, but they were summarily dismissed by the boys’ club at NASA and on Capitol Hill.
