Read a sample Read a sample

In 1969, the first Apollo spacecraft landed on the moon, a feat that solidified the United States as the world's leading super power. Today, the President, in a bid for a second term, has promised her nation a modern-day lunar landing. Her problem: the Apollo missions were faked. It is physically impossible for humans to survive a trip to the moon.Nevertheless, desperate to demonstrate an achievement in space travel, the President enlists the aid of infamous action filmmaker Dylan Travant, a man she recently tried to assassinate. Dylan's job is to shoot another phony moon landing, just as his father had done decades earlier. What ensues is an international roller coaster ride of political deceit, thievery, heroism, sex and scandal. Government bosses, film stars, CIA operatives, media moguls, war lords and the Vatican's highest, simultaneously enter the fray. But this great government and Hollywood hoax isn't The Great Heist - for there is much more to be stolen than the moon and that can't be allowed to happen.
