In 2025, what had been Mike Gold's audacious dream has become a reality. Global Lunar Electrical Energy is supplying 80% of the world's population with electricity, beamed to Earth from solar farms on the Moon. As his young grandson says, GLEE CEO Mike Gold is now Boss of the Moon, with ultimate responsibility for protecting the security of the GLEE Zone and the Earth's power supply.
But Mike is distracted from this mission when two scientists die under suspicious circumstance at Santa's Village, the scientific enclave at the Moon's north pole. Back on Earth, the wife and daughter of one of the dead scientists mysteriously disappear.
Then the self-styled King of Man, chief of a small, isolated tribe in Central Africa, launches a rocket toward the Moon, challenging the United Nations' Lunar Exclusion Zone. The world breathlessly watches the rocket's two-day journey, wondering if Mike will authorize his staff to shoot it down, as he is obliged to do by international treaty and a Security Council resolution.
Mike senses that there are powerful forces behind these events. With the security of the world's power supply at stake, he finds himself in a desperate race against time to unravel a murderous conspiracy of greed, intrigue and evil.
