Tired of the everyday routine? Ever dream of a life of romantic adventure? Wanna get away from it all? We offer you... escape! Escape! Designed to free you from the four walls of today for a half hour of high adventure!
Tonight, we escape to the high mountains of Peru, and the hunt for a fabulous treasure of ancient Inca relics, for which men are willing to die and to kill, as David Dodge tells it in his exciting novel, Plunder of the Sun.
