Chris Hadfield has created a good story, imagine where the Apollo Program continued and had flown a Apollo 18.  It follows Kaz as he is tasked to bring the Apollo 18 crew upto speed with their new task before going to the moon.  Almaz a Russian spy satelite has been launched and can give the Russians goog images of important sites in the US.

Their aim is to photograph and sabotage if possible, they were told it was unmanned until in space they realise that its manned and it fired upon them.  The Apollo crew get away from Almaz but they have a stowaway on the outside a Russian Cosmonaut and they have to bring them onboard.

Unfortunately someone onboard isn't who they say they are...
