    Stealing the Sky is the captivating and suspenseful account of how in June of 1961 a female Russian born spy working for the CIA and a team of NASA engineers attempted the audacious act of stealing a Russian satellite while on public display in Soviet controlled Prague. Based upon a true story, Stealing the Sky takes you behind the closed doors of Washington's most notable power brokers and pulls back the curtain on a world of intrigue rarely documented in textbooks. The twelve hours unveiled in Stealing the Sky changed the American-Soviet space race forever and helped to put Americans on the Moon before our Soviet counterparts. Most recorded history is only half the story those with secrets are willing to share. This is the other half of the story. About the Author Dan is best known for his thirty-four years on national television as a trusted and respected face of one of America's most successful Cable Television Networks. His passion for history is only equaled by his desire to tell those stories textbooks tend to overlook. Stealing The Sky is his debut novel.

    It has been over a year since Jack and his sister Jule were abducted by pirates from their home island of Barros. Jack had been brought to Indo Island to be trained as a knight with other abducted boys. The expectation was, after a few years of training, they would all be shipped north to fight in the great war between the two large kingdoms of Bandellon and Taradoon. After several months of rigorous training to become knights, all under the watchful eyes and supervision of Lord Subus and the Masters, Jack and a small group of friends decided to escape their captivity. Bri, the daughter of Lord Subus, discovered the boys plan. Facing an arranged marriage her father was forcing her into that she wanted no part of, Bri decided to join the boys and help them with their escape. Jule had been forced to remain on board the pirate ship when her brother Jack was dropped off on Indo Island. She was being sent to the Kingdom of Bandellon with several other abducted girls, all of them to be sold on the auction block with nothing to look forward to but a life of misery and servitude. While aboard the pirate ship, Jule and the other kidnapped girls spent their days locked up in a cage or up on deck scrubbing and cleaning under the watchful eyes of Captain Hammerjaw. It would prove to be a journey none of them anticipated.
