But that doesn't explain why NASA picks her to be part of a two man two woman crew to Mars-or does it Bob Kaganovski the ship's mechanic is paid to be paranoid-and he's good at it. After a teeth-rattling launch Bob realizes that his paranoia hasn't prepared him for this trip. He can deal with a banged-up ship but how's he going to survive the next five months with HER just a flimsy partition away Halfway to the Red Planet an explosion leaves the crew with only enough oxygen for one. All evidence points to sabotage-and Valkerie and Bob are the obvious suspects. Oxygen is a witty multi-award-winning roller coaster ride with a plot that moves at the speed of light.
