Trouble on Planet Earth

Book excerpt: Everyone knows that Earth has limited oil reserves. How can they go missing overnight? Is it an evil multi-national corporation? A rogue element in the government? Some crazy scientist? When the trail takes you into outer space, you are terrified for the first time in your life. A mysterious galaxy beyond the Milky Way seems to be siphoning Earth's oil using laser straws. The world's economy and life as you know it will crash to a halt, unless you can stop them. Should you go straight to the Arabian peninsula or head to Washington, D.C. first? Can Ned's ESP be trusted to lead you in the right direction? What does OWD stand for? Let's hope the Earth has enough oil at least to let you solve the case.
