SATELLITE CITY: THE MOST EXPENSIVE, THE MOST LUXURIOUS, RESORT IN THE HISTORY OF MAN.
Satellite City. Where no request, no whim or pleasure, was denied. Where anything was possible…for a price.
It was the playground for the very rich and the very powerful. It was the most amazing pleasure complex ever built -- and it looked down on the Earth from an orbit 22,000 miles high.
Yet, for all its glitter, there was something ominous about Satellite City. No nation or international body had any jurisdiction there; it was a law unto itself. No one knew who owned it; or what went on within its private council rooms...until one man penetrated the wall of secrecy and discovered Satellite City's hidden masters!
