This is a book of fiction and is intended for the entertainment of the reader. The Iranian students are real, although their actual lives are not known.

The reference to Bill Donovan is true. He is the attorney that negotiated the release of Gary Powers. He did become the President of a well-known university in Brooklyn, New York. All references to aircraft, pilots, and procedures are made up for the occasion. Some references may be true or correct, as the case may be, but only by accident.

The reference to drones that carry people is only an extension of the idea of a spaceship. It is possible that a planet out in space somewhere is identical to that of planet Earth. There are billions if not more, planets in the universe, so who knows? It was a distinct pleasure to write about Matt, Ashley, Anna, the General, and Sir Charles Bunday. They are foremost in my imagination.

My wife Margaret and our daughter Kathy helped me whenever necessary and did so with great pleasure. Thanks for reading the book. The book follows the usual procedure of no violence, no sex, and no bad language. It is accessible to readers of all ages.
