<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>The OPSIG team must literally leave Earth to save it in this "thriller ride of a lifetime" from the <i>USA Today-</i>bestselling author of <i>The Lost Codex</i> (Gayle Lynds).</b> <p/> In 1972, Apollo 17 returned to Earth with two hundred pounds of rock--as well as something far more dangerous than they could have imagined. For decades, the military concealed the crew's mysterious discovery. But now a NASA contractor has leaked the intel to conspiring foreign powers, putting in their hands the most powerful weapon of mass destruction yet created. <p/> While FBI profiler Karen Vail and OPSIG Team Black colleague Alexandra Rusakov try to root out the NASA mole and break up the spy ring, covert operatives Hector DeSantos and Aaron Uziel prepare for a mission beyond anything they've ever attempted--a spaceflight to the moon itself--to avert a war that could not only disrupt the global balance of power, but also end in catastrophic annihilation . . . <p/> Dark Side of the Moon <i>is the 4th book in the OPSIG Team Black series, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.</i><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Astronauts, space, rockets, fighter planes, action, intrigue--what more could you want? Jacobson kept me turning the pages with his latest riveting OPSIG Team Black adventure. I enjoyed it immensely, and you will too." --Dale Brown, <i>New York Times</i>-bestselling author <p/> "The thriller ride of a lifetime, a nonstop tale of high adventure and cutting-edge technology that Tom Clancy's most ardent fans will absolutely love." --Gayle Lynds <p/> "The CIA, FBI, and OPSIG operators fight internal and external villains in a manner that mirrors SPECOPS missions I've seen on Earth, but Jacobson takes international conflict to the new frontier--space, and the dark side of the Moon--in a thrilling, authentic, and thought-provoking way." --Lt. Gen. John B. Sylvester, US Army (ret.) <p/> "Alan Jacobson takes fiction writing to a new level by reaching out to dozens of professionals in the field to help him formulate his story. As an expert on lunar geology--and having been a lunar processor and researcher of the Apollo Lunar Samples at NASA JSC--I found <i>Dark Side of the Moon</i> plausible, well-crafted, exciting, and a credible preview of what's on the horizon." --Charles Galindo Jr., planetary scientist for NASA contractor Lockheed Martin (ret.), and Tierra Luna Engineering <p/><b>Praise for <i>The Lost Codex</i></b> <p/> "Contains enough edge-of-your-seat action sequences to fill a handful of Mission Impossible movies . . . An undeniable page-turner." --<i>Publishers Weekly</i> <p/> "From the first page, you know you're in the hands of a storyteller at the top of his game. <i>The Lost Codex</i> is chock full of everything we crave in thrillers: Nonstop action, living-breathing characters (good and bad), rich detail and sharp-as-a-knife prose. A brilliant job!" --Jeffery Deaver, <i>New York Times</i>-bestselling author <p/> "<i>The Lost Codex</i> by Alan Jacobson is a masterwork of international suspense, an enthralling mix of ancient history and modern terrorism, with rich settings, vivid characters, and a fascinating premise. From the opening chapter--in which a Dead Sea scroll with a stunning secret is discovered--to the final shattering twist, this is an outstanding novel from a major talent." --Douglas Preston, <i>New York Times-</i>bestselling coauthor of <i>Blue Labyrinth</i> and the Pendergast Series <br><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Alan Jacobson is the national bestselling author of several critically acclaimed novels. In order to take readers behind the scenes to places they might never go, Jacobson has embedded himself in many federal agencies, including spending several years working with two senior profilers at the Federal Bureau of Investigation's vaunted Behavioral Analysis Unit in Quantico. During that time, Jacobson edited four published FBI research papers on serial offenders, attended numerous FBI training courses, worked with the head firearms instructor at the academy, and received ongoing personalized instruction on serial killers--which continues to this day. He has also worked with high-ranking members of the Drug Enforcement Administration, the US Marshals Service, the New York Police Department, SWAT teams, local bomb squads, branches of the US military, chief superintendents and detective sergeants at Scotland Yard, criminals, armorers, helicopter pilots, chief executive officers, historians, and Special Forces operators. These experiences have helped him to create gripping, realistic stories and characters. His series protagonist, FBI profiler Karen Vail, resonates with both female and male readers, and writers such as Nelson DeMille, James Patterson, and Michael Connelly have called Vail one of the most compelling heroes in suspense fiction. <p/> Jacobson's books have been published internationally, and several have been optioned for film and television. A number have been named to Best of the Year lists. <p/> Jacobson has been interviewed extensively on television and radio, including on CNN, NPR, and multiple ABC, CBS, NBC, and Fox network affiliates.
