Résumé du livre
"The Alpha rocket is the first manned expedition from Earth to get to the Moon. It makes a crash-landing and facilities for 'the maintenance of the abnormal' are sharply cut. There is enough oxygen to support the four survivors for five weeks--or two for ten, or one for twenty.... Nerve-racking because it is so matter-of-fact, this is a high tension story of ordinary men in an extraordinary situation, of decisions quietly made that are literally of life and death importance, and, in the end, of the naked determination of the human will to survive--at any cost."--Back cover.
