The other side of the moon

The year was 1972, and on rocket bases in the parched deserts of California and the vast wastes of Siberia, the race for the moon entered its final, frenzied lap. Both America and Russia were ready to step out into space and all that seemed in doubt was which country would set foot on the moon first.

But unknown to both nations, a third force — a power far more insidious than any evil ever devised by a human mind — was plotting the destruction of any rocket that tried to touch the moon's pitted surface.

The key to overcoming the plot against mankind was contained in the mystery of THE LUNAR EYE — and unless its secret could be unlocked, mankind would be forever shackled within the bounds of this planet.
