The Black Hole

"There is a place in the universe beyond man's vision, yet within his grasp -- the most powerful force in the cosmos, where the here and now may be forever. It goes though space swallowing everything in its path: radio waves, light...even planets and stars. Now, man is about to enter -- the black hole.

Captain Dan Holland, First Officer Charles Pizer, journalist Harry Booth and scientists Dr. Alex Durant and Dr. Kate McCrae are all aboard and Earth discovery vessel on a fruitless search for life in space, when they encounter a lost spaceship perched on the event horizon of the universe's most powerful phenomenon, a black hole. Untouched by the incredible gravitational forces, the travelers move in, finding an Earth scientist in a ship that is populated with robot slaves nd harboring a terrible secret." (Back Cover)
